I haven't been able to get there in 2 days. I was able to post a new entry, but I don't know if it's visible b/c I can't check it. It sucks. |

I can access mine via a proxy, which doesn't bode well. |

I did a google search and someone posted that it was because the government said someone posted a video of that guy getting beheaded, Kim Seong Il (Iraq?). Another guy speculated it had something to do with the elections.
My school website that I set up is on a blogger blog, so the kids haven't been able to get on it this week. Sucks.
So much for free speech. Guess this is one noticeable difference (of many) between Korea and back home. |

The Kim Seong Il video was from when Blogger was blocked in 2004. The elections might be a possibility, but what does Blogger have to do with elections?
Edit - Sorry, Blogger was blocked in August 2005. I think that was the most recent time. |

i just accessed blogger now ... it seems to be working, and i'm at a government computer.
however, if you can't get in, try this: http://pro.xynu.de
this is my proxy site ... go there and you can access blogger! ... even if the government restricts it! |

Big thanks for that!
But...
I can't edit my blog through your proxy, correct? |
