Can’t Access Facebook In Vietnam? Learn How To Access Blocked Sites

Facebook Blocked in Vietnam

Have you been blocked from accessing Facebook in Vietnam recently? Have you also noticed that some YouTube videos aren’t accessible in Vietnam? Or you can’t access websites like Pandora or Netflix? Well, a VPN service will solve that problem.

A lot of people are having issues connecting to Facebook.com once again in Vietnam. If you really want to access sites that have been blocked by VN or sites that are not accessible worldwide, I highly suggest signing up for a VPN service — it not only unblocks websites but it also offers security and anonymity when you’re browsing the Internet. These services give you a unique IP that’s located elsewhere in the world — so when you access a website, it thinks you’re from a different location and not your current location (Vietnam).

Below are a few services that you can try. Most of them offer 1 week trials — money back guarantee.

For mac, Windows, Android, iPhone :

  • StrongVPN (I currently use this service and have not had any issues with them — aget 12 months for $85 or $55 depending on which package you choose from Vietnam)
  • PandaPow (I have used this service in the past and it worked out really well — get 12 months for $84 — very responsive, great support)
  • Witopia
  • Proxpn

Apple’s New iPhone 4S – New, Legit Camera & Siri – Will Expectations Be Met?

new-apple-iphone-4s

While everyone was talking about the iPhone 5, Apple only had the iPhone 4S up its sleeves!  Ha!  Well, Apple, you failed at meeting the masses’ expectations this time.  Many people were eagerly expecting the iPhone 5 but soon fell to their disappointment when they saw the unveiling of the iPhone 4S — same design, different features and not by much.  I guess Steve Jobs’ last product wasn’t as revolutionary as people thought it would be.

Let’s see what’s new on this phone.  Is it really the most amazing iphone yet?

The Barnes & Noble Nook ebook reader did NOT live up to its hype.  The portable white device is neatly packaged and looks sleek with its “colored” dashboard but that’s pretty much all there is to it.

Still Motion

OH EM GEE!!

I just discovered this group name, Still Motion, and they are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!

There isn’t one video that I dislike.  They’re all so amazing.  I am totally inspired!  Because of Still Motion, it actually made me consider marriage in the future!!  HAHA!  How lame is that?!?!

I never really thought of marriage before or I actually didn’t want to because I wanted to focus on my life and career, however, they were able to capture such lovely moments and truly show the joy and happiness that one can get out of being with the person you love!  I love the music and all of the footage that they used to put their videos together.  It’s oh-so-neat!

IF I ever get married, Still Motion better be there.  WOW.

I’m in love.
