Blocking blogs in China

I will be heading up to Beijing tonight for the Olympic Games. I have not been able to update my blog on my last few trips to China because blogger.com is one of the Internet sites that has been blocked by the 'Great Firewall of China'.

However, when China was awarded the Olympic Games, it promised that there would be no censorship and unrestricted access to the Internet during the Games.

I hope they keep their promise otherwise I will not be able to update my blog until I return at the end of the month. If there are no posts within a few days of this one, then it will be apparent that the Chinese have not kept their promise.
