Noticed your excellent post about Rwanda today. Other bloggers are talking about darkening their sites on Tuesday, the day the genocide started ten years ago, as a show of support and mourning for the people of Rwanda. Ten years on, and no high level diplomats have felt the necessity to visit the country for their memorial ceremonies.

Once again, in a way, the world is turning it's back on this small country.
If you like the idea, replace your main page with html that displays a black frame, and maybe a short explanation of why your page is dark, maybe a link to a page explaining the history of the genocide.

If you can't do that, maybe just mention the anniversary. And spread the word. It's a small gesture, but it would be nice and right for the blogsphere to make a statement.

Having a severe case of diarrhea of fingers, I doubt going silent for the day. We get to talk Rwanda anyway, thought, and I get to repeat the link Tuesday.
