I really joined to find out what was going on with the block.<BR/><BR/>It's been in place roughly since I wrote this blog post.

As I will not have my own computer to begin with in China, I'll probably use Firefox portable on a USB pen and install the extension that is recommended to be able to access Flickr. As you said, at the moment (and always?) there will be a way round the blocks.<BR/>Cheers<BR/>JonoJonohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992512606101695225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16693931.post-89460814346111403392007-06-19T10:47:00.000+02:002007-06-19T10:47:00.000+02:00Hi Jonathan,I haven't had any problems with upload...Hi Jonathan,<BR/><BR/>I haven't had any problems with uploading photos, though I don't know if this is because of the Firefox fix. I have heard rumours that people haven't been able to upload, though this doesn't seem to be widespread. Sorry for the lack of real information. I would take a look on the Flickr help and search for 'China'. The help pages are also blocked in China at the moment. All of this is a pain, but there's usually a way around it.<BR/><BR/>All the best,<BR/><BR/>JAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11667852535983804885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16693931.post-988646541221427972007-06-19T10:35:00.000+02:002007-06-19T10:35:00.000+02:00Just out of interest - as I will be in Beijing thr...Just out of interest - as I will be in Beijing throughout next year - whilst viewing photos is not possible on Flickr, is it still possible to upload them? Most of my blog readers are not based in China and hence providing that they are able to view the pictures, the block isn't a problem although a slight bother.Jonohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992512606101695225noreply@blogger.com
