TC Cribs: Inside Sina?s Weibo Microblog (TCTV)

The runaway growth of Sina's microblog service Weibo has been one of the hottest tech stories of the year in China, and we found out the power of the platform firsthand during the promotion and planning of TechCrunch Disrupt Beijing. One curious thing about China's microblog wars is that an older technology company-- not a scrappy startup-- became the dominant winner. That's partially a testament to how entrenched the massive Web brands are with Chinese users and evidence of Sina's willingness to cooperate with the government, back when other microblogs like Twitter were shut down.
