Summary / Abstract (Note) | The recent protests and uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt have both been called "Twitter revolutions" and "Facebook revolutions" due to the widespread use of user-generated content disseminated over social networks like Facebook and Twitter by protesters, activists and supporters of the protests, as well as by those following the events around the globe. |
