The Revolution Will Not Be Tweeted

This is a really interesting article about activism in the age of social media. I like how the author concludes that most activism that happens on social media is of the "weak link" variety.

I agree that people tend to do what takes the smallest amount of effort, like adding a twibbon to their avatar, rather than making a physical commitment to attend an event or make a substantial financial contribution.
