Group Article(The Hashtag Is Mightier Than The Sword)

Our article was really based on woman, and how we can spread a word through the internet. It mentioned in the article that back then in order for a women voice to be heard she would have to write a letter to congress. Now its simply a blog post, a Facebook status, or even just a tweet on twitter. It also mentioned how this(#) was just a numeric symbol. But nowadays people use it as a way of grabbing someones attention, or being specific about a certain thing. The internet, and social sites really do have power. In the article it included that the Susan G. Komen foundation had raised 40,000 dollars in only 24 because how quick it had spread across the internet. This article made me realize what an impact the internet and social media have on the world today.
