    Hi i just came across a nifty little site it tells you if china has blocked your site as they do with many thousand of sites.

    I seen this URL in Alexa it was in the front page here is the URL.

    http://www.greatfirewallofchina.org/

    Luckily for me my sites were not blocked.

    I've seen that before, I don't think you can trust it at all.

    Very interesting!
    The Chinese regime seems to employ a horde of people only checking websites ...

    Its crazy how the chinese are with blocking sites the madness of it.

    I dont believe that is a useful tool. I run a large network of proxy websites, I tested a few and they are all available. Proxy sites are a pain to strict government regimes like China and I can guarantee they are blocked there, not that it means much to me.
