Twitter to The Rescue

The Feds have just finished a thorough study of the errors made during Hurricane Katrina rescue efforts. Yesterday Janet Napolitano, the new head of the Department of Homeland Security, announced that they might use text messages and Twitter to help with preparedness in the future, according to The Congressional Quarterly.

Too bad no one sent Obama a text message about the ice storm in the Midwest last January. He didn’t notice the hundreds of thousands without electricity, heat, or water for two whole weeks.
