Sneaky Me!

Several people have noted that my blog has been inactive since the penultimate moment, just as Driver and I were banging our way across the decimated pavement toward the Great Wall, for my first experience actually walking on that piece of history. This is not by my choice: the Chinese government blocked access to blogspot just before the one-year anniversary of the Sichuan earthquake and the 20th anniversary of Tian'anmen Square.

I waited them out for a while, but I finally decided to dig around and find (with the help of my friend Keenan) a back-door to blogspot. I'm not sure how well it will work, or for how long, but at least now I can resume blogging.

  1. Is VPN allowed in China? If so, you can
    set up a VPN to outside world and surf the
    web without restriction.

  2. I'm glad you found a way online. Mindless internet restriction was one thing I detested about living in China.
