Final Paper Topic

For my final paper, I will take an in depth look into the internet as a tool of organizing people of like ideas to effect real world change. I will take a look at the protest culture that has evolved over the internet such as the Anonymous movement against scientology and the Airline Passengers Bill of Rights that could only be accomplished through the use of the internet as an organizational tool.

This sounds fine, but I think you're going to want some organizing principles as far as being able to break it down into manageable chunks. You could do it by kind of site (weblog, bulletin board, online newspaper) or by kind of action (one-time calls to action, local community action, international effort). It doesn't have to be one of those, but you should think about how you're going to categorize before you go too much further.
