The Internet IS powerful…

A few weeks, maybe a month, someone on a forum asked if we thought the Internet could elect the next President.

Of course, I said no that the media control it.

Well, I have changed my mind.

Because of the Internet a relatively unaired Presidential candidate Ron Paul, www.ronpaul2008.com, has been picking up steam.

Because of the Internet, the TV series Jericho to be picked backup as a mid-season show. Only brought one show back before once it’s been killed.

There are hundreds of more examples.

I have always known the Internet has a lot of power to change things for people but really never thought about just how global it can and does change things.

It kinda makes me think about what else can be changed because of this thing we call the Internet. It also makes worried about it being used for evil doings and no, I don’t mean spam.

    I’ve seen it for myself with the Jericho campaign. Having been in it from the beginning it amazed me every day to see
    the number of websites, blogs, and Google hits increase. I think CBS believed the blogger who said Jericho fans would take over the internet in 6 mos. if CBS didn’t give in.
    I think we just might have done that too. Ha.
