The Chinese Facebook

China has apparently come up with their own version of Facebook. The difference was that the chinese facebook covers only universities as of 2007.

As of today, they already included:
1) 1500 universities overseas (yes the 3 local universities of Singapore as well)
2) 20,000 local (as in Mainland China high schools)
3) 85,000 corporations.

WOW.

It's called 校内网. loosely translated as "On campus". It was started by a few graduates of Tsinghua university.

For some reason, the interface looks almost the same as the original Facebook:

Xiaonei's 22 million users v.s Facebook's 70 million.

And to think....that 22 million only came from China's university population :S And Facebook's 70 million came from..well a global platform.

I'm tempted to sign up.

LOL
