»  Technology in the Face of Disaster

There is a lonely little blog currently online that, like any other blog, most of the internet can relate to. The difference is that this one originates in a New Orleans highrise data center being fed electricity by a diesel generator and connected to the web via fiber optic lines too deep to be affected by the current disaster situation. A handful of people in an air conditioned server room have become one of the eyes and ears in a city full of rumor, speculation, and accusation, for as long as the fuel holds out. Face it, folks; these people are exactly like you or I (except sitting on top of and enduring something no one would wish on their fellow human being). When the going gets tough, the tough get blogging.
