Egypt: Next 24 hours

The protesters are planning a very large demonstration of some sort tomorrow (Tuesday.)

Today, the 'government' (as it is) successfully shut down every non-military/non-financial internet provider. They've also been kicking out/detaining/confiscating journalists and their equipment.

I really hope that doesn't mean that the 'government' is planning something very bad between now and tomorrow. But I can't help thinking it.

UPDATE: Here's Google not being evil: They set up a voicemail-to-Twitter service for Egyptians to Tweet even without internet access.
