SubscribeBaidu Launched Entertainment Channel
As expected, today Baidu launched another content channel, entertainment channel, or Baidu Yule, after its finance channel and 2008 Beijing Olympics channel. Since the end of last year, Baidu has set a countdown to the launch of entertainment channel with celebration videos from about 100 famous entertainment stars.
As Baidu Finance and Beijing Olympics channel, Baidu Entertainment channel aggregates news content, search services and UGC content, including entertainment news from websites, posts of Baidu Postbar, mp3 from Baidu mp3 search, MVs and videos from Baidu video search, images from Baidu image search, and content from Baidu Zhidao (Q&A service) and Baidu Baike (wikipedia-like service). Some content pages of Baidu Yule are edited by Baidu editor team, but there are many webpages generated by machine based on a certain algorithm, such as webpage for star Jay Chow, for movie I am Legend, and for music album In Rainbows by Radiohead.
With more and more content channels launched by Baidu, Baidu will undoubtedly turn into a portal rather than a search engine, which makes Baidu to compete directly with traditional content portal as Sina and Sohu. The new competition from Baidu makes the once stagnant web portal sector one of the most interesting one to watch in 2008.

I couldn’t agree with the comment. I believe Baidu’s main attraction is its searching engine.No other portal websites can gain such searching power. Nor searching engines can give so many contents besides searching results. that is why Baidu is so unique and attracting.
