Internet Collective Action is people organizing in a nonhierarchical manner to accomplish a particular goal. The reward is in the doing, and how much or how little anyone participates is completely voluntary, depending on their abilities and commitment to the goal. By this process amazing things can be accomplished. ICA will grow so long as the Internet is free. http://www.lisamcpherson.org/pc.htm is an example of ICA.

I'm so angry, I made this blog post
So I listened to the entire one hour and forty eight minutes. It was supposed to be about Chris Hedge's argument about the Black Bloc in Occupy Wall Street events. Instead it was nitpicking, sniping, and derailing. And Chris Hedges, probably the world's expert on revolutionary movements in today's world? He got about 8 minutes. I learned nothing except that OWS is going to have a problem if they assume that all people are equal in education, experience, and ability. This discussion shortchanged the expert in favor of arguments over nothing.
