Many Small Ladders; One Great Firewall

Today, the International Herald Tribune delves into China's Internet censorship policies and efforts to combat them...

For the vast majority of Internet users, censorship still does not appear to be much of a factor. The most popular Web applications here are games and messaging services, and the most-visited Internet sites focus on everyday subjects like entertainment news and sports. Many, in fact, seem only vaguely aware that the Chinese Internet universe is carefully pruned, and even among those who know, a majority hardly seems to care.

But growing numbers of others are becoming increasingly resentful of restrictions on a wide range of Web sites, including Flickr, YouTube, Wikipedia, MySpace (sometimes), Blogspot and many other sites that the public sees as sources of harmless diversion or information.

The mounting resentment has inspired a wave of increasingly determined social resistance of a kind that is uncommon in China.

There aren't really any ceaths, aside from one risky cheat (closing the game after starting it, then increasing your PC clock's time a bit) only available for the actual game (rather than the online version), but I suggest you check out the threads here as it should help you a bit:

I was of course exiengratagg the iPhone media coverage point, but seriously, the iPhone was and continues to be vastly over-represented in the media compared to its market share. Well played by Apple, obviously, but reports like are too rare. Anyhow, we will indeed have to see how the e-books market share curve will ramp up over the next couple of years. At least it won't be boring!

Hello, I think your blog could be having browser compatibility problems. Whenever I take a look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in IE, it's got some overlapping issues. I merely wanted to give you a quick heads up! Apart from that, great website!

Aw, this was a very good post. Finding the time and actual effort to generate a good article… but what can I say… I put things off a whole lot and don't manage to get nearly anything done.

After I originally commented I appear to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I recieve 4 emails with the same comment. Perhaps there is a means you are able to remove me from that service? Cheers!
