Quotes and notes from items in my Google Reader account.
Pull quote: “[T]he content that flooded Twitter, Google, and FB yesterday was largely about SOPA, PIPA, what was at stake, and how to fight it. If those sites had also been down, a powerful platform for activism would also have been unavailable. I don’t know if this was by design, but leaving the big SMS and Google up was a really effective way to both show a little bit of what the internet would be like under the proposed legislation, and to really flex the internet’s ability to facilitate activism on a grand scale.”
