Now You See It... Now You Don't
Aaron Dunlap, PeakOil.com
Some of you will recall my observations on recent Chinese web traffic dominating the numbers here at peakoil.com.

Well another interesting development has occurred.

So one day last year the Great Firewall of China seemed to fall, and with it came a barrage of web traffic to our website. In fact, Beijing alone was a full 20% of our total traffic in Sept last year. (And apparently 100% lurkers)

So here is the kicker... The very next month, in October 2006... not a single visit from the entire country of China. And not one visit since then either.

China went from the Peakyist city in the world, to absolutely silent... nothing... blank.

Fascinating. Scary.
