Track Hurricane Gustav on Live News Camera
With Hurricane Gustav shaking the tranquility of the Gulf of Mexico, a lot of people are structuring social media tools to facilitate the flow of information in this particular area.
On Twitter, Mark Mayhew - New Orleans local and heavy-user of the Web-based SMS platform - keeps track of all signs of climate change or threat.
Journalists from the Chicago Tribune are also implied full time in reporting on the moods of Hurricane Gustav.
All big media houses are actually covering the Hurricane, using traditional online tools, like Aljazeera on Youtube.
From individuals to corporations, everyone is implied in tracking and reporting any climate changes, ready to pull the emergency alarm at any time.
Another great way to follow the Hurricane is through Live News Camera, a video hub syndicating a variety of local and national TV networks. The Website has a dedicated page, the “Hurricane Center“, where visitors can search for local TV networks on a (Click2Map) map.
The concept of Live News Camera is made possible thanks to the technology we develop here at Click2Map, which makes it really easy to explore new ideas with Google Maps. In the case of Live News Camera, the map creator created 2 groups of markers (USA TV and World TV), but each group contains close to 70 markers total, and some markers contains several tabs. Because we make data management a breeze, map creators using Click2Map have the richest detail-oriented maps online.
Thumbs up to Live News Camera for offering such an original source of info in those times of climate uncertainty!
