So while Yahoo IM and MSN IM are fairly popular over here, far and away the most-used IM is QQ. My Chinese friends convinced me to start using it a month back and today I woke up and found out I have to verify that I’m a human.
The funny thing about this Turing test is that well, my computer keyboard has Latin and Korean characters. So I’m SOL, right?
Fortunately there is nciku, which has a neat little AJAX handwriting tablet.
