I'm with you there. I wasn't able to tear myself away from twitter last night, on the lead up to the pro-Mousavi march. Many within Iran were telling us what was happening in the country, but also asking for our assistance, by donating bandwith and even helping to overload government servers. It's as if we were part of the movement, despite not being in the country or even Iranian. To me, this was a powerful demonstration of the power of Twitter and web 2.0. Absolutely amazing... and I also wished I was in Tehran with a camera.
This article by the leading blogger on Hubpages (one of America's top 125 websites) describes a completely innovative and effective solution to the ongoing Quebec issue.
