internet - Community building is key

Chen Luyi of the China Web2.0 Review also gives his report of yesterday's Mobile Monday, I reported about earlier. He quotes also the CEO of Wangyou, Ye Ling, who said he was earlier misunderstood by Robert Scoble when he compared Wangyou with YouTube. I reported on that discussion, so amplified that misunderstanding.
Building a community is what makes Wangyou different, and a similar sound I noted yesterday from other online ventures too. There is still a discussion possible on whether Chinese sites can also compete globally, but stressing the community-building talents is key. And such a feature is very hard to transfer to a global stage.
