Thursday, November 12th, 2009SmartMobs describes a report from the China Digital Times on the twitter mobbing of a virtual wall set up by KulturProjekte to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Using the twitter hashtag #FOTW, Chinese ‘netizens’ have bombarded the site with calls to end State censorship of the Web.
Which I wonder (should the latter happen) would have the greatest historical significance; the fall of the Beriln wall or that of the Great Firewall of China?
