"MySpace China is looking to create an online messaging service, and have begun to take an aggressive front to bring about the IM for its online social network.\nMySpace China has reportedly invited technicians to test a beta version of the IM, and have noted that the service will need several high-end features including video-sharing, in order to satisfy MySpace users.  While these numbers have not been confirmed, it is estimated that MySpace China currently has around 600,000 registered members.  With the urgent sense surrounding the implementation of an instant messenger for MySpace China, it seems that there is a pressing desire to roll out as many new functions as quickly as possible to engage users. \nThe site, launched in April of this year, is an independently owned company with investment from News Corp.  Other social networks that have begun their push into the Chinese market include YouTube and Flickr.  Any IM service launched by MySpace China will face competition from Tencent Holding's QQ messaging service and the MSN Messenger, as the two control well over 80% of the market.\n[via]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
