Online Activism and the role of social media

Online Activism:

By commenting, blogging, tweeting, text-ing, we are actually spreading the word to as many people as we can... It is called as virtual volunteering!

Media Activism such as internet activism and hacktivism play a very BIG role in the civilized world today.

Examples include Egypt revolution, UK protests, Anonymous, PGA protests at Geneva, 2000 US presidential election vote recount, IAC etc.

So to all those critics who say "people can only comment on Facebook and cannot do anything to bring change" just STFU.. At least the people who are spreading the message are doing their part of volunteering to bring change.. what have you done?
