"Tencent, one of China\u2019s biggest Internet portals,\u00A0unveiled its Q+ desktop interface to officially launch the QQ Open Platform\u00A0for native applications and those developed by third-party developers. Q+ will be accessible in the next release of Tencent's QQ Instant Messenger, which lets applications access QQ's\u00A0650 million active users.\r\n\r\nWith a single click,\u00A0users will be able to switch from their regular operating system to the Q+ interface, which functions much like a pseudo operating system of sorts.\u00A0Q+ loads a dock on the desktop, which resembles the Mac OS Dock, with pre-installed applications for QQ services, including IM, music, video, and the social networks Qzone, Pengyou, and Weibo.\r\n\r\nUsers will also be able to run third-party applications in the Q+ desktop interface. According to the report, Tencent will experiment with providing third-party developers with access to the Q+ API, which gives them access to various Q+ modules including content sharing, document upload, and voice and video chat.\r\n\r\nThese third-party apps, as well as native QQ apps, will be available for download via the App Market application but the terms for revenue sharing terms have yet to be revealed."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
