Microsoft has launched a Twitter like service, called MSN Juku. MSN Juku, which is launched in China, is powered by Windows Live Messenger and borrows the popular and the highly liked social networking features from Microsoft’s chatting software.

MSN Juku and is now in beta, lets users post 140-character messages to an update screen that slowly scrolls old messages to the right. The service automatically links users with people on their Live Messenger contact lists, whose updates also appear on the scrolling timeline.
