More and more Social Network website  are launched these days.

and also the Taobao(Alibaba Group) SNS called Tao Jianghu.(Jianghu is a name to descripe a industry in china. )

the top 3 big site Sina.com is preparing its own social network, integrate with its wonderful blog system, But sina was making a kind of invitation marketing: only release the news of the product, but never open the registration, caused many people  excited to try.

and Yesterday Chinese B2B e-commerce group Alibaba  announced plans to launch a newly-developed product “Ren Mai Tong” today, integrating e-commerce and the social networking service functions to provide an online community for business people.

It will not only provide online gaming interactive functions, but also focus on the business networking activities to promote better business relations.

one of the chief engineer for the “Ren Mai Tong” product, told local media that the new service includes functions such as business card production, friends’ business cards holder, latest news, and customer news aggregation. In addition, if two parties reach an agreement on the website, they can realize online trading with Alibaba’s online payment platform Alipay.
