Hillary Rodham Clinton urged the Egyptian government to lift its ban on
social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter as the country deals with
the aftermath of riots that shook Cairo this week. Clinton said that the

is blocking the social media sites. There are mixed reports on Twitter about

blocked, while others say the sites are up but moving
