Easy things can get difficult

Due to unknown reasons, Turkey has banned the use of blogger.com since Friday afternoon. Because of that we not only couldn't reach blogger but of course also not our own blog and millions of blogger blogs.Sometimes this country is hard to understand. We are now writing this through a friend who was so kind to offer her help (thank you JealousyDesign!).

Leaving comments is impossible at the moment for us, so please forgive us for our neglection of other blogs, hopefully we will have soon another solution or maybe they will remove the block (or so we hope). We can see the blogs through proxies but not everything can be done that way (like posting blogposts and comments).We are going to get some help from a more technical person, and hopefully we soon can enter all blocked sites in another way (besides blogger also youtube and many other sites have been blocked).

Please keep your fingers crossed, Turkey is going downwards the past few years, we are hoping for the best...

    Hope this block ends soon and you can read your messages of support!Using censorship as a method of control is abhorrent! Feels very strongly about this:)Good Luck!
