Turkey bans blogger.com

Looks like my readers in Turkey (even though they be few in number) will be having problems getting b2fxxx now. Unlike the Aussies, whose great firewall will probably be tripping over the triple x, the Turks have instigated a blanket ban on all things blogger.

"Following the censorship of YouTube, now the widely used site blogger.com has been shut down, reported daily Radikal yesterday. The censorship decision was made by the Diyarbakır Penal Court on Oct. 20. Together with blogger.com, the site's extension blogspot.com is also not going to be reachable by users in Turkey."
