Using Social Media to track Hurricane Gustav
August 30, 2008
I love hearing interesting ways people are using Social Media, and the Ning site put up today to help report news on Hurricane Gustav is a brilliant use of the tools available. The site will aggregate content from a variety of sources, including; Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, Utterz, Technorati, etc.- all you have to do is tag the item gustav.
Kudos to Andy Carvin for starting it and for everyone participating/contributing to help educate folks in the affected areas as well as keeping us connected so we can mobilize when needed.
We are all praying Gustav dies before hitting land again, but if it should continue on - here’s hoping we are better prepared to take action and respond quickly.
