Social Networking Websites As Emergency Communication Platforms
Posted in Emergency Readiness on February 17th, 2010 by Arthur – Be the first to commentSocial Networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Myspace have been used for years for socializing, entertainment, professional networking and broadcasting content.
These forms of new media have succeeded at integrating electronic media: internet, wireless phones, television and radio and building complex communications systems in networks designed by the users themselves.
Recently, social networks have been very effective as alternate communications systems against totalitarian regimes.
Social networking websites can also serve as emergency communications platforms in response to natural disasters.
“Online social networking sites could solve many problems plaguing information dissemination and communications when disaster strikes, according to a report from US researchers in a recent issue of the International Journal of Emergency Management.
In the wake of natural, disasters such as the Haiti earthquake, major events, such as the Hudson plane crash, and terrorist activity, online services, have become increasingly prominent as useful tools to get the news out faster than traditional media, to provide timely information sources, and even to re-connect people affected directly or indirectly as events unfold.”
Social networks have evolved modern communications to the point that individuals can record videos, images and text and broadcast them worldwide in real time. Social networks enable anyone with a wireless device to act both as a citizen journalist and a broadcaster transmitting content and analysis almost instantaneously. Whether the barrier is an oppressive government or a collapse of traditional communications systems after a disaster, social networking websites offer viable emergency communications platforms to individuals affected.

The Sportsman Channel has released their list of the 8 ‘Sportsman Presidents’ and Teddy Roosevelt tops the list.
“In honor of Presidents Day, the Sportsman Channel has released its Great Eight list of “Sportsman” U.S. Presidents. The list is online at thesportsmanchannel.com and at facebook.com/sportsmanchannel where users can vote for their favorite. The Great Eight include Theodore Roosevelt, Grover Cleveland, George Washington, Herbert Hoover, Andrew Jackson, Chester A. Arthur, Dwight Eisenhower and Calvin Coolidge.
