Today is when thousands of web sites go on strike against the SOPA/PIPA bills. They're either blacked out or shut down completely for the day, Wikipedia included. Every one of these sites will have a link or message of some sort for information about the issue and methods for contacting Congress. I would say to visit www.sopastrike.com, but it looks like they're experiencing heavy traffic now. Here are some links to other sites regarding the issue:

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2012/...white-house-principles-supporting-free-speech

I'm sure there's more, but those are a couple I knew off the top of my head. I'm also watching (paying attention) to this stream as much as I can:

Thanks, and you can still get Wikipedia to load actually. Just have to hit the 'stop' button at the right time.
