in san francisco, california protests occurred throughout the day and in different parts of the city with up to 150 people arrested for misdemeanors such as trespassing, resisting arrest and blocking an intersection. part of the success of the group coordinating named direct action was due to utilizing smart mob technologies including text messaging, google maps, live video-feeds and internet radio updates. in contrast to the first-day protests in 2003 when the city was effectively shut down in many ways, the protests were focussed on specific targets and conveying messages – "there's little point in barricading the bay bridge in a city where most people are against the war anyway." in the morning, a group of 500 worked their way through the morning commute effectively tying-up traffic for hours as the police had to block, move and re-block streets and busses for the procession. the federal reserve bank and chevron corporation were also targeted with actions and saw arrests. starting around noon and lasting for several hours the most "dramatic" protests were a die-in – again blocking the main traffic artery, market street – directly in front of california senator dianne feinstein's office. feinstein supported the iraq war resolution and subsequent supplemental appropriations bills although she has stated she was deceived by the bush administration about the weapons of mass destruction. as police arrested dozens of protesters more would take their place. in the evening 7000 marched and rallied in front of san francisco city hall hearing speeches including assemblywoman carole migden. although mostly peaceful some police were pelted with glass christmas ornaments filled with paint.
