You can't make this stuff up...

My blog is blocked by our corporate firewall... (and I quote):

The Websense category "Social Networking and Personal Sites" is filtered.

I guess my blog isn't work related... not really sure WHAT it's related to, come to think of it...

I feel your pain (I work at CIM).

Now, what can we do about it? There's a silent majority of us that are ready to help.

Good point - no need to suffer in silence. There are more than a few Comcast bloggers...

This sort of thing is annoying, especially for technology workers. I read lots of blogs like yours. It helps give an insight into what's going on in various places and with various technologies. This is no less part of my job that reading periodicals or even news papers.

Agreed James. So *my* blog now appears unblocked - working to create a smarter policy here around this. For example, we have partner sites that employees can't visit at work!
