.@plind &@onepercentyellow Twinkle gets through the filter! It isn't the most friendly Twitter app but beggers can't be choosers. I'm happy
Trying Twinkle app, to see if I can get Twitter in China on my iPhone. The next thing... How much will this cost me now that I know?
@jutecht Tried to load 2 picts on to Flickr from home today. Took 5 tries and 40min. to get them posted. Can't imagine trying vid. from home
@CPDubbleU Yup, I said it... though I'm probably too n00b to be throwing the term around ;-P
@nielspeen It was my mistake, I can access twitter on my iPhone via Twinkle, but it is still blocked. I'm in Dalian.
@skorlaki1983 Lot's of people know how to get around them, but they tend to use 'unsafe' sites to pass email passwords etc. thru... sad.
@skorlaki1983 Not so interesting from here, I forgot to say no YouTube either, frustrating for teachers here for sure!
@erringreg I got seriously teased there... thought I had unlimited access, but Twinkle is better than nothing for tweets from my phone.
@skorlaki1983 I paid$70 for a VPN tunnel on my laptop to get by, can't do that for phone so I'm excited to see Twinkle works tho it's clunky
@skorlaki1983 Yes, Twitter, Facebook and wordpress have all been blocked since June, before the Tiananmen Square 20th anniversary.
@kyteacher Twinkle is awful as a twitter client on the iphone, try echofon, which I think is still free or pay for Tweetie
From elation to total disappointment, it was old profiles that loaded... only Twinkle seems to work (which is not a great twitter App) :(
I think Twitter has been unblocked in China W00T! I've now got all of my twitter apps working- Awsome!
Yes, TweetDeck is doing just fine here on my laptop, I'm just playing with Twinkle because I can tweet thru the Chinese filter from my phone
Twinkle is working through the filter but it seems me attached photos aren't. Another try http://tinyurl.com/ybrosz7

Edge In Frankfurt: THE AGE OF THE INFORMAVORE— A Talk with Frank Schirrmacher - http://www.edge.org/3rd_cul...
thinking itself somehow leaves the brain and uses a platform outside of the human body. And that, of course, is the Internet and it's the cloud. Very soon we will have the brain in the cloud. And the raises the question about the importance of thoughts. For centuries, what was important for me was decided in my brain. But now, apparently, it will be decided somewhere else. - David Truss
