As a testament to the power of the Internet (and Facebook Groups) the band “Rage Against The Machine” has had their 10 year old song “killing in the name of” brought to the top of the music chars in the UK.

The massive Internet campaign started life from a Facebook group trying to get the song to beat the X Factor single that has become a yearly fixture for the past 4 years in a row. The protest worked astoundingly well with just under a million people now in the facebook group and the song racing up the charts as people bought the song through iTunes, Amazon and a host of other music stores.

Go RATM!
