San Diego Startup – Disaster Emergency Site

Cast your vote on ideablob for Disaster Emergency Information Site! By voting, you can help the team win $10,000 to support the project.

Description: Aggregate emergency/disaster information from every media source including tv, radio, blogs, twitter, and more. Published on one page per disaster and then separated into neighborhoods where pertinent, this website could put the info into the hands of the people who need it most.

I have a team already working on the first phase of a project which would aggregate both major media sources (tv, radio, etc) as well as citizen journalists (via blogs, twitter, etc) and republish the information about disasters and emergencies into SMS, email, web, and other mediums.

The point of this site is to act as a central hub for getting information quickly about your area in times of disaster.
