Looks like the Great Firewall or something like it is preventing you from completely loading www.skritter.com because it is hosted on Google App Engine, which is periodically blocked. Try instead our mirror:

legacy.skritter.cn

This might also be caused by an internet filter, such as SafeEyes. If you have such a filter installed, try adding appspot.com to the list of allowed domains.

Google block

Google and all associated services have been blocked in China since last night, although there has been sporadic access, right now I cannot get to my gmail or google reader or anything. Even worse than that though...just now I tried to practice skrittering but the practice page just hangs and won't load a character. Is is related to google apps being blocked? I'm sad.

Wow, that sucks!
Hopefully they are just sending Google a message and will unblock it again soon.

How is Google/Skritter access from China now? Still blocked?

Much better now, thanks! Hope THAT doesn't happen again!
