I think maybe it's perhaps easier to start a revolution but the question is, given the fragility of the Internet apparently...

does the Internet allow for sustaining the momentum? I'd almost say the traditional methods are better for that then the Internet right now.
While it would have obviously been horrifying to see a crack down I wonder how the Internet would have been able to help keep the protests going. I think had a crack down occurred and the Internet stayed up somehow it then feeds the protests. But if the Internet gets shut down the protests might fizzle.
It's all sorts of fascinating.
