Otherwise occupied! Social media is not my thing. Flash mobs, either. I have never seen one. I have seen a video on the dance one, but didn't know it was called a flash mob. Didn't realize it was a phenomenon and the source was social media.

What a terrible name for something so innocent. But the potential is ugly, I see.

Where have you been, Linda? This has been going on for quite a while now. Started out harmlessly. http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/flash-mob-participate-examples/

...but turned ugly--black 'yoots' coordinating with social media, attacking whites and generally causing mayhem.

...and here's a new twist...organized labor using social media to coordinate flash mobs of strikers.
