Student Twitters Himself Out of Jail
ABC News reports that 29 year old American student, James Buck, used Twitter to raise awareness of his arrest in Egypt.
“As Buck and his translator tried to leave the protest in a taxi, Buck says they were chased and then detained by Egyptian police. As their cab driver drove the pair to the police station under direction by the police, Buck sent out a single-word message from his cell phone to his Twitter feed: Arrested.”
