One Word One Moment
China proclaimed 3-day mourning for the Sichuan victims. A Nation prayed together from May19 to May 21.
China's 1.3 billion people observed three minutes of silence starting at 2:28 p.m. — exactly one week after the quake. I designed this slideshow to keep moment of silence forever.

Mind the Gap at 14:28Google China’s search log
Google China’s Search Log Displays Moment of Mourning
Google China’s blog (in Chinese) mentions a Google search query log which dramatically shows the moment of silence and mourning on 2:28PM on May 19 for the victims of the May 12 earthquake in Sichuan.
Apparently, even Google search queries fell off dramatically during that three-minute moment of silence where Chinese stopped everything they were doing to observe a moment of silence.
The graph says it all.

Black and white news front page in mourning hasbeen a norm for great national tragedies or war in China since before World War 2 / Sino-Japanese War, and now, it is a continuation of that great tradition into the webpages.
