Katrina Hell/Live Journal from New Orleans
The Hurricane Katrina Disaster is moving into recovery certainly, though the work to recover will be a long slog. What’s currently hapening, first hand in New Orleans? See the following:
The Interdictor weblog is being updated regularly. Five employees New Orleans-based DirectNIC have been holed up since just before the storm blew in nearly a week
ago on the 10th and 11th floors of the building that houses their
headquarters. (see C/net for their story).
The Interdictor photo blog gives you the visual of what is happening as well (11/28/05 update: it appears they pulled that url down, the mirror site below is working though)
Lastly, many refugees from the Hurricane Katrina Disaster are being moved to various communities throughout the U.S. I can’t think of a better way to be a good Samaritan than to open hands and hearts to them all.
Addition 1:00PM EST:
Here is the link to Sigmund Solare’s pesonal site, he is the CEO of DirectNIC. This looks like a mirror site to the above, as well as an easier way to reach all their information as they post live from New Orleans http://sigmund.biz/0904/
12/15/09 Update: The Live Journal Site for the Interdictor is linked above on the date that is the start of the storm; move forward by each day to see the updates in history in 2005
1/4/2007 Update: Both the DirectNIC and Sigmund.biz/0904 links appeared to be dead as of 1/4/2007. These were the mirror sites to the photoblog noted above
11/28/2005 Update: It appears they pulled that url down, the mirror site below is working though
