Page "Smart mob" Paragraph 22

Smart mobs can also be organized to congregate simultaneously at multiple locations.

Usually used to attract media attention and spread awareness of a cause, distributed mobs were used effectively in the 2005 civil unrest in France.

Distributed mobs were also used in Project Chanology, an ongoing protest against Scientology.

On a larger scale, a " World Wide Flash Mob " is being organized around Geocaching and aims to be the largest distributed mob to date.
