internet - Sex blogger closes his website
Marc van der Chijs was the first one to note (at least on my radar screen) that the now famous China Bounder has used a new feature of blogger.com and only allows invited people on his site. A pity, just as he was making his international break-through. There is a huge debate going on in the US blogosphere whether Sex and Shanghai can still be called a blog. And a more urgent question: should I subscribe? When I cannot link to this blog, reading hardly makes sense.
Update: His stories are still showing up on my RSS-reader, but that might have happened before the site was closed.

is misleading.
The debate is about blog with restricts, not about ChinaBounder.
The way you write the sentence will lead people think a huge debate about "Sex and Shanghai" is going on in US.
One of the criteria is whether a blog should be public or not. By moderating access through a pass word, Sex and Shanghai is no longer public. Perhaps you do not agree with the criterium, I'm not too sure myself, but it is certainly part of the debate.
