Using the site The Great Firewall of China, it is possible to check which sites are blocked or not by the Chinese Government. The flash application connects to a test server within the country, tries to access the site and return the status of the page. A great resource, if it weren’t for one thing:

The test methodology seems a bit flawed or there are discrepancies between various Chinese ISP’s, because according to the site, this blog is blocked from access within China, however I have had one report saying that it is indeed accessible – at least from within the network operated by China Telecom. Any more reports on this would be appreciated. (If this blog is indeed blocked, it would be ironic. My guess would have been that Iran, who is not blocking me, would have more reason to be upset than China?)
