SHANGHAI (AP) — Michael Phelps recently tweeted his mother from the American team's training camp in Australia. The 14-time Olympic champion may have to resort to more conventional modes of conversation when he arrives this week at the world championships in China, where Twitter and Facebook are blocked by the government.5.39.217.76+ Z  m0 }3 O5 y8 _
Unless users know how to create their own virtual private network (VPN) or are willing to spend heavily on roaming fees and post from foreign-based smartphones, access to foreign social networking sites in China is difficult.

On Friday, Phelps posted this message to his mother, Debbie, from his training base on Australia's Gold Coast: "MamaPhelpsH20 thanks mom!!! Miss u and love u!!! See u when u get over here!"5.39.217.769 g( u4 E, i5 B4 {$ s( B) {
China had committed to a more open Internet during the 2008 Olympics, at least in Beijing. But that was before the Iranian protest movement of 2009 or this year's "Arab Spring" when social networks proved their capabilities for organizing protest rallies against governments.公仔箱論壇! o% {& U4 b/ T3 I: [5 O
Some Chinese circumvent controls by using VPN services, though that has become more difficult in recent months. At the same time, the popularity of a homegrown Twitter-like service, Sina Weibo, has increased.tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb* W8 n+ P% u# D+ Y- ^. f2 n) W
The government counts on Sina to police the postings and expunge objectionable material that mechanical filtering does not block. Chinese, however, often find inventive, subtle ways to post views critical of the government.0 b  Y; J! s" x# D: z
Nearly all Chinese divers post to Weibo, and a handful of foreign divers have also recently joined in, namely British standout Tom Daley, plus 14-time U.S. national champion David Boudia.
