Norway deaths: One minute's social-media silence urged as mark of respect

The tweeters and facebookers among us are being asked to stop social networking for one minute today as a mark of respect to the people of Norway.

A group called "Twinute Silence" wants us to remember those who died in last week's atrocity, and not using any social media for one minute at 5pm.

One of the organisers Ciaran Doyle said it was "just a small idea that anybody can participate in".
