AOL announced the beta launch of its dedicated web destination in Hong Kong. The new site combines AOL’s suite of communications products, including free e-mail and instant messaging with regional content in Chinese. AOL is partnering with some of the most compelling creators of content in the region, including China News, udn.com (United Daily News) and Phoenix New Media. The company will also draw upon its worldwide distribution partnership with HP to deliver a co-branded local language portal and search solution for HP users in Hong Kong. AOL will continue to add new content and features over the coming months.
In addition to the AOL Hong Kong site, AOL will in the coming weeks deliver an AOL/HP co-branded language portal for users of HP desktop and notebook PC’s in Hong Kong.
