The picture shows areas of the world where Internet access is restricted and ESL Daily may not be permitted for viewing.
Earlier this year, Chinese Internet Authorities closed access to about 18,000 websites. Nobody knows when or if access to these websites will be reestablished. The government blocked Blogs and any other sites that might contain public opinions. You can see it here: http://www.csmonitor.com/2007/0925/p01s06-woap.html Unfortunately ESL Daily News is hosted through Blogger, one of the primary targets blocked.
The ESL Daily team is trying hard to find a solution to the problem; unfortunately there is no simple answer to this situation. However, those living in China (And other countries that block internet access) can view the site though a proxy server. That is, a site that masks the users identity. Rather than appearing to be in China, a proxy server masks the IP address of the user so it appears they are accessing the website from outside of the country. The following link should work for China: http://www.pkblogs.com/esldaily
Other Free proxy servers include: (Just include the URL www.esldaily.org in the field when asked)
Hide My Ass. http://hidemyass.com
Ninja Proxy. http://www.ninjaproxy.com
Shy Surfer. http://www.shysurfer.com/
Big list http://www.privax.us/
I apologize for all Chinese viewers, and I hope Blogger will be reestablished in the future.
