They are used to airing their views online.

But yesterday, some bloggers chose the real world to speak out on a hot-button issue - the public transport fare hike announced on Friday.

Their 90-minute protest, organised by socio-political blog The Online Citizen (TOC), was the second held in Hong Lim Park since rules on public demonstrations were relaxed on Sept 1. It drew a crowd of about 150 people.
