It seems that India (which by the way is one of the biggest technology based countries in the world right now) is blocking access to a number of blogging websites including the one here that my blog is hosted on.
Why are they doing this?
To try and stop extremists from talking about their views after the deadly bombings in India a few weeks ago.
I really don't think this is the way to go about making sure the extremists have a way of communicatong with one another.
If all other countries had the same view of things, the internet might as well be shut down. One of the great things about the web and the net is for people to have the ability to practice their freedoms.....the ones that we have left that is.
