tweeting without Internet connection

Egypt severed their Internet connection when the protests against President Mubarak started.  Google and Twitter got together and built a work-around, where someone in Egypt can phone in a tweet, which will then be put on twitter.com.

It's getting harder and harder to be a despot.
