Facebook group finds owner of lost camera
A lost camera has been reunited with its owner after 230,000 people on Facebook launched a campaign to locate him.The camera was found by Aussie Danny Cameron on the Greek island of Mykonos this summer, he looked around but couldn't find the camera's owner.
He then looked at the images and spent a day of his holiday trying to find anyone of the people in the images, to no avail.
He then turned to Facebook setting up a group 'Needle In A Haystack' which he hoped would find the camera owner as an experiment of Six degrees of separation.
After 230,000 joined the group someone finally recognised the people in the images and the French owner of the camera was located -- hopefully he is not friends with his insurance company on Facebook.
A spokesperson for the 'Needle In A Haystack' group said: "The camera owner has been found .. thanks everyone for taking part ... unbelievable effort.
"The good will of 200,000 people created a stir that rippled into an office in London, where a group of French people were recognised, one being the owner.
