I don't have any idea, but it does seem like it's really hit and miss. I've had no trouble accessing either of your blogs, or anyone else's.

I use Thrunet. I wonder if it is related to the ISP being used?

(Although, like Bobster said, since you are in China now, I don't see how that would affect you.)

I'm actually in China, where blogspot blogs are blocked too, but typepad isn't. Someone told me that typepad and blogger blogs are blocked at the moment in Korea. Can you see these without the proxy?

Nope they're not coming up! I suspect it has to do with Norks being in town. Peace nonsense and football games. i can view them fine with proxify though.

As of this moment, both links are working fine for me. It was true a couple of days ago also. Are some ISPs being blocked but not others?
