A crash course in changing the world.
Charleston, South Carolina sits right on a fault line between two tectonic plates. We experience minor earthquakes with some regularity and, as recently as the 1850's, experienced one that caused serious damage. Should such a tragedy strike again, Ushahidi could prove invaluable. This service would allow people to tell rescuers where they were if they were to be trapped under rubble. In fact, anyone at all could use it to tell the rescuers where they were needed and what type of assistance was required. They could alert the fire department to any fires that started, ambulances to any injuries, and police to any looting. This could prove to be a truly revolutionary system in times of crisis.
