Better Tech Buy: Sohu vs. SINA

The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which Motley Fool senior technology analyst Eric Bleeker and chief technology officer Jeremy Phillips discuss emerging trends in technology.

In today's edition, Jeremy and Eric pit Sohu against SINA to decide which of these market leaders is the better buy. While Eric and Jeremy see a lot of potential in SINA's social leadership in China, they find Sohu's compelling valuation a bit more tempting.
