Yes https://diasp.org https://usr.io http://podupti.me sites will be down on the 18th to protest SOPA/PIPA. See you around 8pm EST on the 18th when we are back online. I have seen a lot of the other pods doing the same joindiaspora.com jauspora.com diaspora.happeningin.eu, see what other websites have joined in at http://sopastrike.com/
In case you missed it, Diaspora* has 2 new members, Sean Tilley and Dennis Collinson. See the main D* blog for more http://blog.diasporafoundation.org/ I am excited to see more momentum and more communication from the core team!
I confirmed today that we will see the diasporaHQ@joindiaspora.com account back in action soon, that will be great since we are all connected to it and its the best central source of information. The account is so connected that sending messages from it crushes the system, they are working to fix that now.
Also for you into the development of Diaspora see the dev blog at http://devblog.joindiaspora.com/
If you have not seen it diasp.eu has some nice stats on user numbers, see it at https://diasp.eu/stats.html
