Technorati blocked by the Great Firewall of China

Technorati has been reported to be blocked by the Great Firewall fo China. Other Chinese bloggers made the same observations but it’s not fully confirmed yet.

Just like any huge search engine (Google, Yahoo and MSN), Technorati may possibly pose the same threats to censorship efforts by the Chinese government especially because Technorati specifically indexes blogs.

However, I don’t think Technorati indexes non-English content yet so there’s not much Chinese blogs in the database.
