Social bookmarking in China

I'm not personally convinced that so-called social bookmarking is anything other than a nerds' delight and flavour of the month. Perhaps I'm too old to appreciate what makes it work (if it really does).

Anyway, it obviously remains flavour of the month and I was interested to see this piece on the China Web 2.0 Review blog about Baidu's plans to launch its own site cang.baidu.com. We wish them well with it.

I was most interested to note this insight in the piece:

There are many social bookmarking sites in China, the most popular so far is 365key.com. The market is crowded, and in a survey among Chinese active bloggers, their favorite social bookmarking service is del.icio.us.
