This article is about the huge role Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube played in the Arib Spring. It talks about how our government uses these online resources to track or keep an eye on the online behavior incase of another protest. It also breaks it down a little by each country and gives a situation where social media has played a role in the Arib Spring. Then it goes on to talk about what the actual role of social media is, and it talks about different online "revolutions" that had come about, but they say the hardest thing to do with social media is to get them from behind the computer screen and out into the streets to protest.
