I just arrived in Shanghai last night after a series of minor mishaps. More pressingly, I cannot seem to connect to Twitter. This is obviously upsetting. Even my remote Twitter program cannot connect to Twitter.
After just googling “china twitter blocked,” I have to say, I am deeply saddened. I knew about YouTube, but this?
Ok, now figured out that Tumblr is blocked as well. How am I supposed to overtake the media industry if I do not have access to major websites?
I will go eat something weird for breakfast to make my social media butterfly self calm down.

Invest in a proxy server program. The Great Fire Wall has blocked Twitter, Blogger, WordPress and Youtube. Either that or learn to use the domestic versions.
