Blog services in China under Regulation::[Blog]
3-13-2004, the 3rd largest blogservice BLOGBUS was shutdown by China government.
One day later, the largest blog service BLOGCN was also turn down by government.
Then, another day later, the 2nd largest blogservice BLOGDRIVER post a notice on it's main page "Maintenance for unknow situition".
Even one day later, BLOGDRIVER resume it's service, the other 2 blog service stop work by know, almost 180000 bloggers can access to their blog and don't know what happened.
Last weekend, I have a phone meeting with the managers of these 3 blog services and other bloggers.
Hengge, manager of Blogbus: We don't know how long it will take, but we have to clean up all these sensitive posts.
Huzhiguang, manager of Blogcn: We got a fax from government which claim that we must shut down our servers.
Rever, manager of Blogdriver: Still ok, by now. We don't have these sensitive posts and we have filtering program.
Thanks to all friends who let us can be heard.
