Abstract
Every second 200.000 text messages are sent globally. Today the use of SMS has proven itself a powerful medium to give rise to spontaneous social movements. Throughout the year 2011 the world witnessed major events, such as the protests across the world, which were not only organized, but moreover registered and reported through civilians' mobiles rather than by journalists. Many of such examples confirm and underline the great influence of mobile telephony.
