Berkeley grad student James Karl Buck discovered the life-saving properties of Twitter when he was arrested by Egyptian authorities last April after photographing an anti-goverment protest. He had time to tweet one word - "ARRESTED"- on his cell phone before he was hauled off. Buck's Twitter friends besieged the U.S. embassy with inquiries and he was released a day later.
