A crash course in changing the world.
This task was kind of difficult to finish. I tried to google and ask friends if they knew anything about the resilience plans of our city. But I couldn't find any satisfying answers. Upon reading blog posts of other agents I came across a pretty recent debate: Using social networks to communicate with each other. I couldn't believe I didn't think of the most recent and also one of the fastest method of expanding resilience nowadays.
It is a fact that facebook has been blocked in Saudi Arabia and China. But why is that? Why would a country block a site which is merely made for staying in touch with your friends and collegues? It is pretty obvious that facebook has become a powerful tool for spreading news to thousands of people within a very short span of time. It is easy and free to use and has a simple tool controlling who you want to share the news with. Everyone can join the discussion of a specific news item and they can share the news with their friends and friends' of friends.
Unfortunately a tool as powerful as facebook can also be used for purposes which the government doesn't support, such as building up a rebelling group or gathering people for demonstration. But not wanting to turn your back against the government, it is useful and easy to learn. Many of my friends have a fb account. And many companies such as Bahn.de joined facebook as well. It is easy and fast to receive the latest updates and you can share their news also with other people.
I discovered a lot of news through facebook and I personally think it's one of the best news spreading sites online.
