Twitter Revolutions- A trending topic?

As we read in "Groundswell", people are become very powerful when they connect and form relationships and communities using social media.I agree that Facebook and Twitter can be great tools protesters use to connect with more people. On the other hand, I am wondering if some of the riots and protests might become unmanageable and get out control because of people connecting through social media.. - we cannot really predict whether people we can connecting with through Twitter, for example, really support the ideas or the cause of the protest..
