Thief inadvertently identifies himself

The WorkSpace thief?Sometimes you really need to thank the Internet gods. Last week two guys broke into Vancouver's WorkSpace, an office collective, and stole four laptops and two iMacs. The culprits couldn't be identified by security footage. Luckily, as founder Bill McEwan noticed, they did most of the work for him. The new owner of his laptop apparently uploaded a picture of himself to the company's Flickr photostream. Now there's a Web-wide manhunt attempting to identify the tattooed man.
