Patch Joins in Moment of Silence for Newtown, CT, Shooting Victims

The company-wide blackout is to honor the memory of those killed last Friday in Connecticut.

  This morning at 9:30, Patch will join with AOL in a company-wide blackout as part of a "moment of silence" to honor the victims of the elementary school shooting in Newtown, CT, last week. According to Techcrunch, "The campaign was inspired by a call for a moment of silence by Connecticut’s Governor, and spearheaded by Causes and SV Angel. It follows a coalition of tech leaders calling for more gun control." Other companies likely taking part in the "Web Moment of Silence" include Adobe, Duke University, Salesforce and WillCall. How will you participate in the moment of silence? Tell us in the comments.
