Facebook is the largest social networking site in, well, the world. But not in China. Facebook and Twitter are blocked by China's Great Firewall. The micro-blogging service Sina Weibo is the whip in China. HTC knows its market and therefore slightly retooled the Status/Salsa for the China market. Gone is the Facebook logo and a Weibo burning eye logo is on the dedicated button instead.
