Attention, Friends of Ben!

Hi, everyone, this is Alexis. Ben is in China, and has no access to livejournal right now. So he can neither post his adventures nor read about yours until he comes back in a few weeks. But he can still read comments.

That's it!

I had that problem in China! I either got around it with TOR. (I think mac uses Vidalia + firefox plug-ing), or I used the LJ post-by-email function, which unfortunately is (a) only available to paid users, and (b) apparently needs you to set up a PIN, which I did by accessing LJ via TOR. Anyways, hopefully you're having fun in Uighurstan!

Good luck getting around the Great Chinese Firewall!

Thank you. I think that this is finally working.

Slow as hell but useful.

Yeah, I think had to use a roundabout to get to LJ from China (mostly I was too busy to use the internet anyway), hope you're having fun there! Silly firewall.
