Sign o' the times...

A new use for Facebook...

Australian authorities said two girls lost in a drainage well system used their phones to update their Facebook statuses instead of calling police. Glenn Benham, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Fire Service in Adelaide, said the girls, ages 10 and 12, posted Facebook updates saying they were lost in a storm drain in the city's south suburbs and a friend who noticed the updates called police, Britain's The Daily Telegraph reported Tuesday.
