I was just wondering what you know about it? Has anyone joined? I actually tried just for the heck of it but couldn't manage.

I haven't tried it, but from talking with people about it, I think it's definitely nowhere near as popular as Facebook is in the US. In fact, I have a lot of Chinese friends and while they have all heard of it none of them have mentioned having an account. QQ is much, much more popular. There is a QQ Zone, similar to Facebook, that some QQ users frequent. The majority of people I know on QQ have a profile on QQ Zone but don't seem to use it a lot. A few of them update their status/message board thing several times a day though.

人人网 is mostly for students to keep in touch, so it's not really like Facebook. The people who already have a job usually use 开心网.

QQ is an instant messenger, similar to ICQ/MSN/etc. QQ Zone/空间 is very much like MySpace. QQ is immensely popular, pretty much any Chinese person under 40 has a QQ number. QQ is available on mobile phones, so many Chinese people are on QQ 24/7.

Its like facebook, almost, but with themes for your profile and many many MANY apps. I'll be going to BLCU this September, already joined 人人 :D

I use renren(xiaonei) and QQ.

Renren is very similar to facebook and yes, it is has a ton of students since their historical name was 校内。

QQ is used by everyone. I used it for business as well for talking with clients when I had a job and stuff.

Almost everyone I know uses QQ, even those who have graduated, Kaixin001 I feel will die out over time, though really it's 1 company, maybe they'll be able to combine them.

from what I have noticed:

People under 24 years old: 人人

People over 24 years old: 开心。

But looks like the trend is joining 新浪微博。
