Do No Evil? Google helps crack Egypt's internet censorship with Speak2tweet buyout.




"Like many people we’ve been glued to the news unfolding in Egypt and thinking of what we could do to help people on the ground. Over the weekend we came up with the idea of a speak-to-tweet service—the ability for anyone to tweet using just a voice connection."

Google creates a simple way to tweet without an internet connection, using any phone line and your voice. Click here to listen to a steady stream of protestors and revolutionaries in Egypt (in real time).

Here is the announcement posted on Google's blog earlier today.
