Well hum.

Last week, my workplace blocked Livejournal. Then today I hit a link to LJ by mistake (forgetting that it was blocked), and realized it wasn't blocked anymore.

I don't know what to make of this (but enjoying it while it lasts). For some reason Livejournal has been resistant to workplace blocking, as opposed to other blogging and social networking sites that are persistently blocked. Also once something is blocked, it usually stays blocked. Maybe some of the agencies have Livejournals...

Curiously, my office has never blocked LiveJournal, or any other blogging or social networks (just don't tell my IT department...)

Could be they let LJ slide because it's not a bandwidth hog like MySpace and it's not like a ton of people really use LJ in comparison to MySpace.
