Freedom

We have enjoyed so much freedom for so long that we are perhaps in danger of forgetting how much blood it cost to establish the Bill of Rights. ~Felix Frankfur

As I watched the revolutions erupt around the world, I marveled at the power of social media and mass media.  Most notably was the use of Twitter & Facebook by Egyptian revolutionaries.  Not only did these sites allow freedom fighters to rally but they also allowed the world (at least the free world) to watch it unfold. Amazing.
