Iran’s Twitter Revolution

July 1st, 2009 · No Comments | Print Post Print Post

To stay connected with what is going on in Iran you need to be on Twitter.

Iran has been rioting for weeks now over the re-election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Protests and rallies have continued daily with thousands of people showing up for them. The organization of this revolution has taken place online, using Twitter, YouTube, and blogs.

The Iranians have been using Twitter to plan protests and quickly spread news about where the next protest will be. There are constant updates on what is happening, new YouTube videos to watch, and blogs to read. These moving tales show exactly what is going on in Iran from a citizens perspective.

Twitter shows links to photos and videos of the protests, many of which show the growing political unrest in Iran. Since the Iranian government has started to ban the internet, more and more blogs and videos have come up through Twitter, an easy way to connect to millions of people across the globe. The only way to completely stop the revolution would be to take the entire country off the internet.
