    "The Facebook-sparked protest and 4 February demonstrations in Colombia make an interesting test-case of the burgeoning power of unorthodox media outlets and their potential to rally great numbers of people in a short period of time. The initial spontaneity and synergy are a paradigm example of how technology can spawn transnational political forms; in this the phenomenon both belongs to the past decade of net-based activism and highlights the potential of social networks to make this type of organising even more inventive and sophisticated in the future. At the same time, this particular protest (and this form of mobilisation) exclude the many who do not belong to the technological and transnational elites which they favour. Moreover, by avoiding the classic approaches of civil-society work - including the formation of alliances with NGOs, political parties, human-rights groups, and trade unions - the march organisers disregard traditional forms and institutions of democratic action. In doing so, they privilege a fragmented and highly individualised perspective of reality over one that embodies shared, public action for social improvement. "

  • Overall, I am skeptical about the claims that Twitter has been instrumental in organizing the protests. I grant that it may have been very influential in publicizing them. But I'd like to see tangible evidence that 10 random Iranians found each other via Twitter and – communicating in Farsi –actually planned a rally. I think we are still short of this – most of the reports I've seen about the use of Twitter have focused mostly on the role it played in publicizing the violence or the already planned protests and rallies.

  • Morales vs. Cantona : Dans “The Facebook Effect”‘ David Kirkpatrick raconte la fascinante épopée Facebook d’Oscar Morales. En janvier 2008, scandalisé par l’attitude des Farc, comme de plus en plus de Colombiens, ce il décide de créer une page Facebook, la première, pour protester contre le mouvement guérillero. Il crée sa page tout seul, dans sa chambre, un soir. “C’était comme une thérapie”. Le lendemain, il avait déjà 15000 membres. Un jour plus tard, ils sont 8000. A la fin de la journée, Morales décide de créer un “événement” sur Facebook : une marche de protestation. Elle a lieu un mois plus tard. 10 millions de personnes défilent dans les rues de Bogota. Plus 2 millions dans le monde. L’effet Facebook. Pas une révolution, une seule journée, mais une vraie capacité à mobiliser
  • Si l’on n’a pas encore fait la révolution via les médias sociaux, ils permettent de s’organiser et de capillariser. La campagne d’Obama s’est en partie construite sur l’exploitation des réseaux sociaux en permettant aux militants de recruter parmi ceux de leurs amis qu’ils pouvaient estimer intéressés par la cause et en les aidant à s’organiser entre eux. Néanmoins, le parti conservait le contrôle du message, même si ce dernier pouvait être adapté, personnalisé par les militants pour en faciliter la diffusion..

    Organiser la protestation… C'est souvent ainsi qu'on lit l'engagement citoyen et les exemples de cette session n'échappaient pas à la règle. Mais où sont donc les engagements qui font éclore des propositions ? Sont-ils possible dans un monde où ceux qui font de la politique ne sont peut-être pas encore suffisamment attentif à ce que disent leurs citoyens ?

  • Instead, the rebels lugged a 100-pound radio transmitter. For years, there was massive soldier who carried it on his back through the rugged trails, Gusmao recalled. When they reached a point high enough, they would transmit the latest developments, and then quickly flee before the Indonesians tracked them down.
