The Most Tech-Driven GMA Impeachment Campaign Ever?

Posted on November 12th, 2008. Written by Rico.

The cat’s out of the bag, so it can be said. While the recent intervention to the latest attempt to impeach GMA was undergoing formulation, at least one draft of said document was shared privately through online micro-blogging/social networking service Plurk.

And of course, inquirer.net reported on the story immediately, taking advantage of their much-visited news site to get the word out promptly, instead of waiting for the next print run.

The full impeachment intervention is available for viewing and download over at document-sharing site Scribd. The online service also lets people “embed” documents into their own websites, as I’ve done below:

Last but not least, this intervention was signed by numerous Filipino bloggers:

Again, I ask: is this the most tech-driven GMA impeachment campaign yet?

Well, it was also perhaps the one that required using different means of online communications, from email, to Plurk, to Skype (secure audio), and preliminary drafts were also shared on my FaceBook page.

Of course SMS played its part, too. The fact that one blogger-intervenor was in Davao is something noteworthy too and would only have been possible because of the relative ease and security of communications and sharing docs online.

OF COURSE, GMA IS SCRAMBLING AND PANICKING TO CHOOSE HER SUCCESSOR ON 2010, FOR NOW SHE IS DESPERATELY HOLDING ON, THE TRUTH IS NOW UNFOLDING, WHERE THE WICKED, CORRUPT, THIEVES, CHEATERS AND ROBBERS IN MALACANANG IS BEING EXPOSE, GMA IS PANICKING DUE TO ONCE SHE STEPS DOWN AND HER SUCCESSOR WILL NOT PROTECT HER, SHE WILL BE TRIED FOR A BOATLOAD OF ANNOMALIES IN HER TERM AND SURELY SHE WILL SERVE NUMEROUS RECLUSION PERPETUA FOR PLUNDER CASES, SHE IS WORST THAN MARCOS AN PAR WITH RAMOS IN TERMS OF ANNOMALIES, MORE POWER TO THE SENATE, BLACK MOVEMENT AND LETS HOPE IF GMA IS FOUND GUILTY SHE WILL SPEND HER REMAINING LIFE AT THE CORRECTIONAL.
