Baidu tieba clubBaidu has just launched a new feature, called club, for its popular Tieba. Club is much like a public tieba. But the master of the club has more privacy controls. In Baidu’s words, club is to provide a more private communication place for special interest groups, but it’s not going to affect or compete with public tieba. Here’s Baidu’s announcement.

Although they look very similar and most probably share the same back end system, they are still different. A tieba is driven by a search keyword, which becomes the name of the tieba. Most users visit tieba through search. Users can post in tieba without login. A club’s name doesn’t have to be a search keywords. Members must login to post content or probably view anything.

Currently only a selected group of tieba users have got privilege to create club. You can see all the clubs on this page. If you visit Baidu Tieba and login, you will see a new tab on the tool bar on top of the page, called my club. You can find clubs you have created or joined in a drop down list.
