Chinese citizen journalist Zuola, who has been Twittering the Beijing Olympics in English and chinese has been detained. What is a "Town Arrest"? From Globalvoicesonline:
"Well-known citizen reporter and blogger Zhou 'Zuola' Shuguang was detained for just over an hour today in his hometown in Hunan province, and he was able to tweet what was happening as he was led out of the house then forced into a vehicle where he was driven back to his hometown of Meitanba.
The incident was live-blogged here, where on Zuola’s return to his computer it was revealed to us (and just shortly before, himself) that Zuola is now not allowed to leave Meitanba."
