Who wants to block Google's blogger service? China? Nope, not ALL blogs are blocked in China. Only those the Chinese govt doesn't like.
But Pakistan has recently blocked ALL blogs on blogspot: http://www.globalvoicesonline.org/2006/03/02/pakistan-blogspot-blogs-blocked-in-pakistan/ There's this Indian blogger who calls himself 'The All Seeing Spy'. He's been writing a delicious blog called 'War For News' about the emergence of competition in the English TV newsscape in India: NDTV vs. CNN-IBN vs. Times Now. (Nobody considers Headlines Today a news channel.) http://warfornews.blogspot.com/ He was firewalled in the Times NOW office yesterday: http://warfornews.blogspot.com/2006/03/times-now-firewalls-war-for-news.html And today, someone posted Rajdeep Sardesai's goodbye letter to NDTV, causing CNN-IBN / CNBC TV 18's Noida office to block ALL blogspot blogs! RSF Handbook for Bloggers and Dissidents: http://www.rsf.org/rubrique.php3?id_rubrique=542 Oh, and Rajdeep's goodbye letter to NDTV: http://warfornews.blogspot.com/2006/03/sorry-againunforeseen-delays.html#c114136050649010253 Enjoy while it lasts. Hope the Spy doesn't get caught and lose his job. There's no money in blogging. -- Members of the ZESTMedia list exchange news and views about the media in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Maldives and Bhutan.
