When revolution broke out in Tunisia, Twitter was used in surprising ways. The Canadian National Post reports:
“There were Tweets warning of sniper locations, Tweets asking for blood donation, and Tweets organizing protests. At least one man, known on Twitter as BulletSkan, says he is still breathing because of the social network.”
From @BulletSkan’s Tweets:
Translation: The army is not responding to calls! There are armed men in our yard! We need help!
Translation: Spread the word! I must escape! There are armed men in our yard at 72 Avenue 3 Aout!
