speaking of China

I just noticed that this blog has had not one reader from China since the count feature was introduced on February 25. How is that possible? Pretty much every country in the world has had someone read this blog– but not the world’s most populous country? Even when Syrian readers are checking in at this blog in the midst of street massacres?

I wonder if China blocks wordpress blogs. Anyone know?

There are also no readers listed from Iran, and I know for a fact that I have readers in Iran. But I think they’re reading this blog using some trick that may involve routing first through another country.
