Sina Weibo iphone and Android are released in 4.0 editions

August 28 News, a few days ago, Sina Weibo iphone and Android are released 4.0 version. This version is more emphasis on micro-blogging multimedia content, providing users with more sharing capabilities. It is particularly noteworthy that Weibo has a built-in video sharing class that uses a "second beat" fixed entry.

On the new Sina Weibo release page click on the lower right corner of the plus, you can see the panel named "Second Beat" icon. Clicking the icon, the user is directed to the application store to download the application. After downloading the installation, click on the icon again, Micro Bo will automatically open the second shot of the video capture function.

Just as the microblogging text only allows users to enter 140 words, the length of the limit instead of a powerful social media, the second shot allows users to take only 10 seconds of short video, may also stimulate the user to a round of self-portraits and creative upsurge.
