I am in China and want to make daily entries in my Facebook page during free time.
Also would like to respond to Youtube replies.
Anyone know of any ways to get around the censorship of the Chinese Communistooges/Mandarin morons?
During my previous visit, I was able to freely access everything through my AOL acount.
(Example: I could read about Tianamen Square while Chinese citizens could not.)
Thank you.

I have no idea about Facebook, since I never use it.
As for Youtube, I don't see where you can with Google and China hating each other right now.
I've never traveled outside the US before, so I have no ideas how things are in other countries.

YEP!
If it weren't for their corrupt, injust, idiot "leaders", they would be a 1st-World Country instead of bordering on 3rd-World Country.

"corrupt, injust, idiots" Sounds like what we've got going on here too. I'd be friendly while you're there: the Chinese hold so much US debt they're likely to be our landlords in the future.

No YouTube or Facebook.
I learned of some techniques which may or may not work, but I'm on a Chinese person's computer and have not tried them.
(More difficult because some things are in Mandarin.)
Soon will be returning home so haven't bothered.
Thank you.
