Launched in 2003, Taobao (www.taobao.com) is the largest Internet retail website in China with more than 75% of the Chinese-domestic online consumer market, serving nearly 100 million registered users and more than 1.5 million sellers.
One year ago, at MIX08 in Las Vegas, they've seen a demo of the IE8 new features for the first time. It didn't take more than a few weeks to prototype, design, develop and deploy the new Web Slices, Accelerators and Visual Search on their website. One year later those features are already something users can't live without.
Listen to the full story from Ying Sun, Product Manager of R&D Center of Taobao.com, interviewed by Giorgio Sardo (Microsoft Corp) and Liwei Zhao (Microsoft DPE China).
