the other side of the wall

Phew. Just a short update and clear a bit of cobweb here. Let me see, it's been 12 days since I left Singapore on a jet plane and the number is counting. 7 days in Guangdong and 5 days in Beijing put me behind the great firewall of China. (i did visit the real brick great walk though) Plurk and blogspot were non existence but i could still have updated using mobile blogging via gmail. Provided you can find access point or choose to visit the cyber cafes, which I didn't.

By the way I'm in Hong Kong now.

Anyway, without a proper keyboard it's tough for me to write much nonsense. It's heartening to read the comments but sorry i can't reply now due to some technical problem (this excuse works everywhere).

And so, until next time!

  • Hmm... Perhaps before you again venture behind the Great Chinese Firewall, you should download stuff like Freegate and/or Ultrasurf...

  • Haa... Ok...

    Well, The Great Wall of China (the physical one) eventually did not protect China from outside invaders...

    And the wall was not there to prevent people from coming in, I think it was also there to prevent people from going out...

  • I guess you are right. Different dynasties expanded the Great Wall at different time but eventually the regimes did fall.

  • Yup... So it's interesting that they are now trying to protect themselves with a virtual Great Wall and/or Green Dam...

  • LOL, I'm not sure how effective it is to their purpose. But the Great Firewall did block out some sites which I frequent.
