Anyway, if you don’t want to spend the night glued to CNN or MSNBC, here are a few places you can go to learn about what’s happening and to check on how things are panning out. Ain’t the Internet great?

Here are many interesting facts about Iowa and the caucuses in one place, complete with handy graphics, because it is USA Today, after all.
And here’s everything you wanted to know about the caucuses but were reasonably afraid to ask, powered by the GazetteOnline.com.
