Appliance Protest
Iranian twitterers are claiming victory in a coordinated series of blackouts during Ahmadinejad's televised speech yesterday:
The
protesters had earlier pre-arranged a call for Iranians to plug in
heavy power load household devices such as dryers, irons and toasters
at 9:45pm local time, as Ahmadinejad's speech began. Online
Twitter feeds claimed blackouts were achieved in East Tehran, Sari,
Tabriz, Isfehan, Rodehen, Saghez, Lavasan, Ahvaz, Khoramshahr, Dezfol,
Jahrom, Khomini Shahr, Shahin Shar, Folad Shahr, Kashan and some of
Rasht.
Some sample tweets:
