I wish the national media would report a bit on this...if you click the link you'll get a running commentary translated from Iranian blogs about the protests in Iran.

From Mr. Suresrafil reporting on AzadiTV now:
He has heard about large gatherings in Tehran and Esfehan, but both the people and the anti regime forces are afraid of each other. They are mostly facing each other and staring each other down. Motorcycles have been confiscated.
Mohseni and Mirdamad squares have had large groups, also in Esfehan.
In Amirabad near Tehran university, the Basij are offering people food and drinks (sharbat) to everyone, nobody is taking it except for their own people.
Park Laleh is seeing a heavy increase in crowds. Most likely tomorrow we will have a much better picture of these demonstrations.
He reads a report from Tehran about slogans that can be seen written all over Tehran against Khamenei such as Marg Bar Khamenei. Same from Hamedan.
Email from Terhan: the best way for a non-violent civil disobediance is through destroying any signs and symbols of the oppressive regime such as destroying street signs, especially those named after the regime's favorite people and symbols.
He is talking much about the problems of picking just one day for demonstrations. Especially when the regime has been preparing to combat this day for 2 months. Everyday is a day for demonstrations.
