In “Small Change: Why the Revolution Will Not Be Tweeted” Malcolm Gladwell reveals the way protesters, in the past and today motivate people to join in protest. In the past protester motivated people by: word of mouth, flyers, and poster. All these ways take time to get people together. In today society, high technology in social media abuses people to communicate through network media which take less that a second to send a message to each other. Gladwell shows that social media like Facebook and Twitter have changed social activism which effected traditional relationships between political and popular authority. This article shows us how the Internet has become the tool which has an authority over people.
