The revolution will not be televised - it'll be tweeted

Gawd bless Web 2.0 - capable of inspiring hundreds of thousands of people to stand up, be counted and help topple decades-old dictatorships in the Middle East. Though how the protestors all tore themselves away from videos of stupid cats I'm not entirely sure...

On the subject of web-based protest, though, may I take this opportunity to urge you to sign this petition against the coalition government's attempt to swing the wrecking ball of the Health and Social Care Bill into the venerable institution that is the NHS.
