But what if I asked someone to post an update for me from their own computer? While I was miles away from that location.

Facebook — Your Get Out of Jail Free Card.

Nice to see the social networks being used for good, as opposed to silly photos and notes about the boss.

Dr. Evil couldn’t have thought of that! LOL And no, it shouldn’t be considered a legal alibi for future cases since people could now team up and update/mug. This post gave them the idea!

Facebook can be used for Good as well as Evil? Brilliant! I think if status updates can be used to accuse a person then when another is innocent at the moment I don’t see why it can’t be used to clear them of a crime.

I think we’ll all have to remember to do that Anand, .. just in case. The status updates have taken on a whole new meaning with this episode; alibi indeed. The underlying advantages of using Social Media are beginning to emerge but I still can’t keep this horror image out of my mind: The year 2020. A beep goes off in some school somewhere and everyone immediately whips out their iphones to update their status… and then back to the lesson. Maybe I’ve been watching too much of the wrong type of movie lately

Wow, Facebook could not have determined this at all. That information should not have had any role in clearing this person.

Now that I can commit crimes though using this as alibi, here is how I’m going to set Facebook up to update on my home computer:
