If ever there is a good example of how social media can empower a group of people to make something happen, check out the set up of the 'Mass Moonwalk' being set up by twitter user @yiannopoulos today at Liverpool Street station in the United Kingdom, in memory of the King of Pop.
In the first 20 minutes he's managed to get hundreds of people to attend, E! TV and Kerrang magazine to cover the event, and the pledge of an after party venue.
A great way to start the celebration of the life of Michael Jackson, and a testament to the power of social media to gather people together to create an event to share this piece of history.
