On 18th January 2011, a young girl in Egypt recorded a simple video expressing a radical thought and her hunger for change.
On 11 February 2011, President Hosni Mubarak announces his resignation.
Over a span of 24 days, little did we know that that simple video featuring a young girl, not famous not a celebrity...she can be like you and me, caught the attention of many from hundreds to thousands to millions and brought change to her country and rid of a government known to be corrupted.

"Give the people control and we will use it"
The world has changed radically. Forever.

Google Rules.
