Just as when IOC is contemplating if athletes are allowed to blog at next year Beijing Olympics, the Australian Olympic Committee has decided not to let Australian athletes blog at the Games. To be more specific, the Aussies are banned from blogging during the competition period.

“Blogging would erode the sanctuary of the Olympic village,” said the secretary-general of the Australian Olympic Committee, Craig Phillips.

I wonder if problogger, Darren Rowse, also an Australian, has anything to say about this ban.
