What an unbelievable story in our social media times!

David Pogue, The New York Times columnist, lost his iPhone while taking the Amtrak train from Philadelphia to Connecticut. 

He tweeted about it, used the Find My iPhone feature, got the help of many followers, teamed up with law enforcement... and he recovered his stolen device in a rough neighborhood of Maryland.

With 1.4 million Twitter followers –including myself–, the @PogueStoleniPhone story went viral. Gizmodo.com investigated and people got glued to their updates.

Better if you read the story in his own words. 

As David Pogue points out, "this is the future of entertainment."
