A crash course in changing the world.
Everyone new it was going to snow but no one predicted just how bad the area would get crippled. The news did a great job of covering the event overall, but it didn't answer the questions most important me. Is the grocery store, gas station and main road near my house open. For that kind of info I relied a lot on chatter via Facebook. Had the local community had a tool like Ushahidi available, everyone would have the power to be well informed, the clean up efforts might have been more organized and faster, and uncertainty would have been kept at a minimum.
