Youporn and RedTube Not Totally Blocked yet
Jun 2, 2008 Blogosphere, Gossips, Singapore
Recently there has been lots of talks about the 2 porn sites, Youporn and RedTube being blocked by Singapore local ISP. I myself talked about it, Hongkiat talked about it and how unprofessional the ISP is, and then DK’s latest entry about the loopholes being blocked. But then, I happened to found another “hole”……
I was reading forwarded mails from friends. Then I clicked on a link without much thinking and it led me to a clip on Youporn. I was surprised. I thought Youporn and RedTube are blocked already? No more loophole? Then I realized, I was on my MaxMobile network instead of my home SingNet ADSL network. I did a test by switching over to SingNet ADSL network. Dah dah, still BLOCKED! And I switched back to MaxMobile, it WORKS! MaxMobile users can try it out yourselves.
Ermmm, seems like the engineer at Starhub forgot about their mobile network…… So guys, 1 more advantage to sign up MaxMobile now! By the way, I am not in any way related to Starhub hoh, other than being their customer.
However, I do not know how long this gonna last. Enjoy while it is still around.
Also, anyone using SingNet Mobile network? Can you visit that 2 sites?

Youporn is the most visited porno-video site in Singapore
Apr 25, 2008 Around the Word, Gossips
This is from Alexa’s Top Sites Singapore, the top 100 sites visited based on traffics from Singapore. It may not be 100% accurate, but I think that, it is not far from it.
Youporn is the 1st porn site in the list at 25th. Other than that, we can also see porno/sex-related sites like RapidShare (to download porn), AdultFriendFinder, YourFileHost, RedTube, SammyBoyForum, MediaFire (similar to RapidShare), Flurl, Badjojo, Megaupload, TheTend, MetaCafe. 10%! Are Singaporeans horny or what?
I was surprised to see Yahoo ahead of Google, but it is acceptable since the list has separated Google and Google Singapore into 2 sites, 1 at 2nd and 1 at 7th place. Yahoo managed the ranking maybe due to Yahoo Mail? I know there are lots of people who are still with Yahoo Mail.
I thought Facebook is hot nowadays, and Friendster is dead. However, Friendster is still ahead of Facebook here.
I do think that JobsDB should be ahead of Jobstreet. Based on my personal experience, JobsDB is much better than Jobstreet…… By the way, no ST710 and Mocca in the list?
