Man Saved from Terrorists by Google

There's a radio segment from Morning Edition on NPR called "Canadian Journalist Recalls His Captivity in Iraq" about a journalist captured by insurgents in Iraq. The really crazy part about the story was an offhand remark he made about eventually being identified and let go because of a Google search. It's worth a listen.

Inapproprite joke about "Google Me!" and "Do No Evil" here.

Update: This has apparently happened again. Now a journalist from Australia has been saved by a Google search. This totally blows me away.
