Twittering power cuts

Just wondering out loud here... does anyone in Saigon or Hanoi use Twitter? And if you do, do you Twitter when you have a power cut? We normally had power outages for either the whole working day - 7:30am - 5pm - or for just an hour or so. There was at least one per month and usually it was a day long job. If I needed to work I'd normally head to District 1 and try and find a wifi cafe with power. It just occurred to me that if you twittered from a mobile that you were on the end of a power vacuum, your Twitter friends may be able to locate the nearest power/wifi source for you. Just a thought.

Only 730 to 5 pieman? You were obviously living in the right part of town! Whenever we had power cuts (guaranteed at least once a week in the later months) it was 6a to at least 8p.

Ouch... it's easy to forget these things... I think if it'd gotten that bad for us I would've started looking into the price of a generator.
