Is the Occupy Wall Street message becoming lost online?

This article from the BBC discusses the positive and negative effects of social media on the Occupy Wall Street movement. It brings up the positive point of social media acting as a tool to connect groups who otherwise would not have been in a network and also the lack of a coordinated message due to the non-hierarchical system and each "node's" access to social media outlets.

Thanks for this. It follows on to the theme of the "messageless movement" held by some of the debate teams!
