The "Flash Mob" of 40th and Market: Media-Generated Hype?

Wow, that was fast.

At 11:30AM, Nutter spoke how the city would not tolerate "Flash Mobs".

By Noon, word already went around Philebrity and Twitter of a plan to have another one TODAY at 40th and Market.

Before 1PM, Penn University already found out and warned everyone.

Personally? I actually want to go now. The fact that the media, the city, and civil leaders are saying this is a problem is actually THE problem now. All the reports, discussion, even telling people HOW to organize these things... well, it's pretty cool. The entire point of the Flash Mob when they were created was to create something fun, interesting, and semi-spontaneous.

So, how about this: You turn down the coverage and ignore it to some degree instead of making it the biggest news possible?

OR someone organize a "nice" one to counter it...
