Essex police charge man over water fight planned on BlackBerry Messenger

In 2008 there was a spate of mass water fights in British towns and cities that were organised through social networks. Most remained peaceful. This month a water fight attended by thousands of young Iranians attracted the attention of Tehran's morality police and led to a series of arrests.

I just stumbled on the US Day of Rage stuff and found it inordinately depressing that announcements about it are chock full of various twitter accounts and how many followers they have. The official facebook page is currently liked by 4265 people. There, saved you a google search.

That said, opBART is going to be THE twitter livestream event of my evening.
