How would you like to get thrown in jail for no reason?

You may have read about this in the news. There was a US college journalism student, James Carl Buck, that was arrested in Egypt while reporting on a riot. He was shortly freed. His friend was not as lucky and is still being held without charge. I signed a petition to help get him free. There’s been about 30 new signatures in the last hour or so, which is exciting to see.

There are several reasons why this story caught my attention:

The college student cleverly brought attention to his case by twitting a single word twit: ‘Arrested’.

He is now using the web2.0 phenomena to help get his friend freed. Please check it out here and sign the petition.
It just takes a few moments.
