Is China blocking Yahoo IM, Skype and Twitter services??

The impact of China’s restrictions on access to certain websites may have spilled over to other web services.
Today we find we have been unable to connect to our business associates in Chine using Yahoo IM, and attempts to reconcile communication using Skype and Twitter have also proven unsuccessful.
All Skype users in China appear offline, and the usual quick responses from people when contacted using the Twitter service have been met with a stoney silence.
Has anyone else been experiencing difficulties contacting people in China using these live services?
