SINA WEIBO V.S TWITTER
KEY FINDING #1
The number of retweets that authors get on Sina Weibo are several orders of magnitude greater than the retweets for the trending topics on Twitter, although they contribute to fewer topics.
KEY FINDING #2
In China [on Sina Weibo], the trends are created almost entirely due to retweets of media content such as jokes, images and videos, whereas on Twitter, the trends tend to have more to do with current global events and news stories.
KEY FINDING #3 We also observe that there are more unverified accounts among the top 100 trend-setters on Sina Weibo than on Twitter and most of the unverified accounts feature discussion forums for user-contributed jokes, images and videos.

In a society where the collective has long been emphasized over the individual, first thanks to Confucian values and then because of communism, these sites have created fundamentally new platforms for self-expression.
