It is very interesting to me how the Philippines managed to arrange peaceful demonstrations, that bring down a government, by using text messaging (SMART MOBS). This really shows how the technology can be really powerful if it is used in the right way. I think what they did was great and very intelligent. They gave great example if simple affected it solution.
On the other hand, Dean’s party lost the election cause they somehow did not manage to use the technology correctly ( NAKED CONVERSATION). Using blog was great idea but it lead to incorrect information which lead them to guarantee a victory that never happened. In this example and also the example of some websites indicated that visitors who use Firefox are 4% higher than those who use IE while the truth that much more people are using IE than Firefox.
In these to example, I found that technology could lead to success and in the same time could lead to failure. It always depends on the users and how well they use it.
