Google SOPA

Wikipedia is undeniably the biggest story of today's internet protest against SOPA, but dozens of other sites are publicly opposing the bill as well—from full-on blackouts to special graphics, banners, and popups. Here at GOOD, we elected to protest through articles and our nifty pop-up graphic. Check out what other websites are doing for the day of action against SOPA, and please suggest others on Twitter or in the comments; we'll update the list later today.
