The service, like Twitter and Facebook, has been integrated into iOS and OS X for the past few years.<!--break--> Tim Cook (http://www.imore.com/tim-cook)'s account, which is verified by the service, has only one post, announcing Apple's new environmental initiatives in China (http://www.imore.com/apples-environmental-initiatives-china-include-responsibly-managed-forests-solar-energy) during a stop in Beijing.</p> <p>From Tim Cook on Weibo (http://www.weibo.com/timcook):</p>

<p>Hello China! Happy to be back in Beijing, announcing innovative new environmental programs.</p>

<p>As of this writing the account has 327,821 followers since its creation earlier today. By comparison, Cook has almost 1.2 million followers on Twitter since creating the account in July 2013.</p> <p>China has become a very important market for Apple. The company sold a record number of phones (http://www.imore.com/ios-sees-big-gains-china-thanks-iphone-6-iphone-6-plus) in the country in early 2015, capturing more than a quarter of the Chinese smartphone market to become the top smartphone vendor in the country (http://www.imore.com/idc-says-china-smartphone-market-growth-contracted-first-time-six-years).</p> <p>Source: Tim Cook (http://www.weibo.com/timcook) (Weibo)</p> </div></div></div><img width='1' height='1' src='(http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/4634c123/sc/28/mf.gif)' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
