Examples of Social Media in historical revolutions? - rivers! - 10-12-2012 08:28 AM

I'm writing an article and need help thinking of some examples of Social Media, as it was used in the revolutions of yesterday. I have the pamphlet 'Common Sense' from the American Revolution but would like more examples. Thanks so much!

The Federalist Papers of course. If you count books as social media Das Kapital by Marx.

A recent historical example is how Facebook, Twitter and blogging helped to mobilize people in Egypt.
