Technology & Disaster

One of the amazing things about this disaster is that our modern technology is being used to locate people and find out information about people in the areas. There are several sites for computers and cellphone users who can use their internetenabled phones and send news, updates, photos and more to a server. People outside the area can access the servers and then search for people and information on them. The phone lines are down and systems are overloaded so calling into the area is impossible however the internet is functioning.

That. Is. Amazing!
