Basically they just subcontracted the whole MSN Juku thing and nobody at MS ever had a real look into it or didn't know about Plurk?

Plurk is blocked in China, so it's not so surprising that staff at MSN China don't recognise its UI.

That's nice. MSFT should take action against the vendor and come clean out of this.
