Our very own Sara Chipps whipped up some really handy code to make it easy for you to black out your site. A lot of huge sites are jumping on board.
You can get the files here: https://github.com/SaraJo/SOPA-PIPA-Protest-Page As a super easy alternative, you can also embed the below code in between your site's head tags. Your site will automatically black out for the 18th and then go back to normal. <script> var today = new Date(); if((today.getDate() == 18) && (today.getMonth() == 0) && (today.getFullYear() == 2012)) { window.location = "http://protestsopa.org";; } </script> Every once in a while, the people can actually come together to influence how our nation is governed. Perhaps this can be one of those times :-) Cheers, Tony --- New Work City Site <http://nwc.co> | Twitter <http://twitter.com/nwc> | Newsletter <http://nwc.co/newsletter> On Mon, Jan 16, 2012 at 11:49 PM, Pat Ramsey <[email protected]> wrote: > Just curious, > > Are any of y'all (yes, I'm in Texas) planning to blackout your web sites > on the 18th to protest SOPA / PIPA legislation in the US Congress?
