Resumen
The concept of online activism is as old as human history. The current online technology has simply evolved from the more traditional media known to human experience. It has transcended into an instant, digitized and easily accessible form. Historical facts indicate that the very first planned community action took place in the mid-12th century BC by the Egyptian artisans who carved and painted in the royal tombs and demanded proper pay. On the third day, the royal architects from the court of Pharaoh Rameses, III caved in and gave the workers what they demanded. More than 3,000 years later, that strategy still works. Technology empowered the Arab people to communicate, organize, implement, broadcast, and propel the revolution in many ways never thought to be possible. This is an amazing story.
