China restores access to livejournal.com, other sites still blocked

JISHOU, HUNAN — Ever since I arrived here last fall, China’s net nannies have blocked Livejournal, the popular blog site. Mysteriously, today, I was able to visit my daughter’s blog with no problems.

WordPress.com is also now accessible. Just last week, it wasn’t.

Even more strange, I was briefly able to access a blogger.com site, then promptly lost that ability. The Great Firewall has been blocking blogger.com and blogspot.com for a couple of weeks now.

Youtube.com, alas, remains verboten.
