Social Media has marketed globalization into every sector. Expressions, Information, experiences run verbose on blogs providing information to a common man's daily life urging him to think out of the 'regular box and make a difference by voicing out their opinion.
Arab Spring became a political revolutionary cult all over the world. News makers, political analysis's, journalists crossed the gaged clouds of censored media and got the common mans narrative via social media. But torrent of social media has had its bane and boon both, be it the case of London rioting where Twitters and Blackberry messenger were used by the mob to rampantly involve themselves in arson and looting or, contrary to that stood the mass protestation during the reign Hosni Mubarak in Egypt during the advent of the 'Arab Spring': social media acted like a fulcrum to propagate the sentiments of Egyptians worldwide.
