Man gets out of jail with one-word blog

Interesting story from CNN:

"With a one-word cell phone message, James Karl Buck, a University of California-Berkeley grad student, told friends of his arrest. Within seconds, colleagues in the U.S. and blogger-friends in Egypt were alerted, leading to his eventual release by Egyptian authorities." 

Definitely a top 10 use for Twitter!  [RJ]
