WE may not aware of this in Hong Kong. But free information is really important issue cf to freedom of speech. We have the privillage to check out technoratic where a lot of artist links/ tags can be found. And are these sensitive to GFW ? Maybe, as we come across closing down exhibitions, censoring quite often in China.
"Several days after Technorati was back in China, we cannot access it again for about three days in China.
And someone found, I also tested it by myself, that we can not search “.technorati.com” in Google. By doing so in either Google.com or Google.cn, we will not be able to access Google for a while temporarily. But we are allowed to search “technorati” as keyword in Google. For other blocked sites, Wikipedia, for example, we can search “wikipedia”, “wikipedia.org”, “.wikipedia.org” in Google, it will not trigger the action of GFW.
If “.technorati.com” is a blacklisted keyword in Great Firewall, then it means, I think, Technorati is blocked by GFW intendedly.
PS. It seems Live.com is also been blocked by GFW."
