On the first day of the new year, Tencent relaunched its web-based QQ service. Now it’s called My QQ.

It’s linked from it’s official QQ website. From its appearance it’s not just a web version of the product, but a user login of the whole site. Maybe a web-based social network is coming.

Tencent started testing its web based QQ in 2006, originally at this address: webqq.qq.com. But it has been shut down for a while.

The service is not fully open yet. You will need to apply for the access.

A web-based QQ is absolutely needed, especially in some companies which block QQ port. There’re some services hacking the protocol to provide web-based QQ access. Now the day of these business is over.

    Do you really think using web based QQ can avoid firewall in a corporate environment? Don’t be naive.
