Chinese get acces to Facebook|Twitter|Youtube for a day.

The firewall that blocks the Chinese from using popular social networking sites was down on Monday night and Tuesday. On Wednesday it started blocking the sites again but not before some users got access to the G+ page of US president Barrack Obama.

They left comments to communicate with people 'living inside' china. One of the comments read, 'Chinese GOV does not represent people of China.'

People in china use expensive VPN to get access to blocked site. But it came as a pleasant surprise that the firewall was down at Monday night.

China has its own social network called Renren. But it is censored under the governments rules.

Chinese authorities think that free access to foreign sites may cause social disruption.
