Nothing.
Just sit back and relax. The IRS will either send your tax return back or send a substitute form for you to sign. (Or they will overlook it.) When you get the form back from the IRS, just sign it and return it.
If it were before the deadline (April 15th), I would advise you to file an extension (Form 4868) to protect your rights. But it's after the deadline now (at least for your 2008 taxes if you are reading this in June 2009), so you can't do that.

What happens if you forget to sign your income tax information?
If you forgot to sign your federal income tax form, they will eventually send it back to you and ask you to sign it and return it. Just sit back and wait. For your protection, I would suggest that you send in Form 4868 while you are waiting. You can print it out here: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4868.pdf It should take you only a few seconds to fill it out. You don't have to send any money with it and you don't even have to sign it. This is not required, but it will protect certain rights in case there is a delay in returning your original return or there is some confusion. Anyway, it can't hurt to file it.
