Regarding the Egypt and the Middle East situation: People were organising and protesting in large numbers around the world long before the Internet and social media came to fruition. The Internet certainly is helpful in these situations for a variety of reasons, but it is not responsible or necessarily *essential* for such events to take place, even in the modern day. Therefore, please stop fawning over the Internet and the social media "angle" of this story. (And you wonder why I consider you 'entertainment' as opposed to 'news' nowdays?)
