This is such a great story...I'm kind of a Twitterer in waves, but I love how an American grad student who was photographing government protests in Egypt used Twitter to get word out that he was arrested so his friends back home could get him immediately freed.
He kept working to get his translator, an Egyptian national, freed as well, and when he succeeded last week, he put the word out on Twitter as well. See, this Web 2.0 stuff isn't as useless as it sometimes appears!
