I have a friend who's studying abroad in Cairo right now ... she updated her facebook yesterday, but nothing since then. I hope she's okay.
So don't worry too much at this point. 
Thanks, I just like to worry. You know how it is.
Maybe send an email. Unless she uses gmail or yahoo mail, actually, because those were blocked too.
Unfortunately, gmail indeed.
Lovely government.
Insert theme music here.
If anyone's looking for up-to-date info on what's going on in Egypt

I've done a quick one; it makes me question whether government by the protesters would be better.

I oppose brutal oppression; I'm unconvinced either side in this will end it, thus I withhold support

I think terrorizing innocents and torching buildings is a poor way to claim the moral highground.

Comparatively speaking, yes, it really was. Or at least in the US - not always so much in Asia.
