China firewall is lame – use Freedur.com to bypass it. You can bypass China Great Firewall and access youtube.com and all other sites which are blocked.

I came accross another test tool which goes even further and provides comparison results between Chinese and non-Chinese cities, HTTP headers comparison, MTR tests, etc. - Test behind the Great Firewall of China

We use Wordpress but we host ourselves (unlike my Jobe Photo blog which is hosted by Wordpress). That’s why we aren’t being blocked (yet) while other Wordpress sites are.

geez…I feel so uncool and un-subversive. Despite being on Wordpress, writing about China, and blogs, and even bikinis – SM still isn’t banned in China!!

I’m pretty sure this is a Wordpress.com related issue. But being subversive is fun too

Yeah Matt and Maggie are in the COOL crowd!!

I have no idea why this is… One thing I noticed – anything Wordpress seems to be bad. Typepad – that’s ok. I thought maybe VCs were bad… but Rick Segal is OK… (He IS a nice guy!) Maybe consumerism? Seth is out but Long Tail Chris is in… Social media – you’d think that would be a good thing. UX? How bad can good design be?

Can someone pass the sweet and sour sauce???

Wow – I feel so subversive all of a sudden.
