Egyptian President quits after Protesters launch Facebook Page - February 2nd 2011
Hosni Mubarak announced he was standing down as President of Egypt after a week of high charged and intensive riots across the nation. The protest, which has resulted in the deaths of some people and the deaths of many others, reached its peak today when the demonstrators announced that they intended to escalate the protest by creating a Facebook page protesting his regime and simultaneously removing their ‘like’ on his.

Mr Mubarak had nearly 15 million likes on Facebook at the start of the week, largely due to Egyptian law requiring everyone with a Facebook group to like him; by mid day today, that figure had fallen below 1,000. It is believed that once Mr Mubarak saw such blatant disregard of his Facebook policy he realised it was time to stand down.

Upon seeing how his Facebook likes had plummeted, Mr Mubarak tweeted: “It’s all over. It was nice while it lasted #egyptianriots”

Fellow Twitterer @mumifymubarak declared the statement as a victory for social networking:

“We violated curfew. We got the army on side. We rioted in the streets. If only Facebook had existed 40 years ago, the Soviet Union might have collapsed decades earlier.”

He also praised the help that the Egyptian people had received from the 20 million Facebook American users who changed their Facebook status to a picture of the Pyramids. [MORE]
