Our Audience

36% of the JT Irregulars' audience is in Taiwan and 24% is in China.  That's 60% of our audience.  Why?  I assume that internet access is guarded in China.  Perhaps YouTube is blocked there and Blogger isn't?  I'm guessing here.  As for Taiwan, I just don't know.  If you're from either of these countries, perhaps you could comment below and shed some light on this.  I'd appreciate it.

"Stacked up against the rest of the country, however, the picture is pretty stark. Wisconsin's bars outnumber their grocery stores almost three to one, according to Google data mapped by FlowingData's  Nathan Yau."
