Online Activism is the future!!!

My experiences as a part of the coalition have led me back into education and I am now studying for my PhD at the University of Warwick. My thesis is concerned with the coalition's use of the internet as a vital tool in its activism and as such, I was wondering if it would be possible to speak with any of you about such matters. I would be really fascinated to hear about your experiences as activists in an online community and the role the internet has played in that, for example, the extent of your relationships with other activist groups, how you may have used the internet to generate new ideas amongst the activist community, and more broadly, how such new technologies are integrated into and have helped you to shape your work. In sum, what value do you believe online activism has to social movements? These are just some ideas I have; I would be delighted to talk about anything else you feel is relevant and important to you, in regards to both your online and offline activism.
I would keep my research as unobtrusive as possible, we can talk via e-mail whenever it is convenient for you and if you wish to remain anonymous I will respect that.
I look forward to hearing from you, and please do feel free to ask any questions of me in regards to my work. Please contact me at
