Cyclone Fani - Twitter Works Even When The Internet Doesn't

As I write this blog #CycloneFani is growing on the easter coast of India. I hope from the bottom of my heart that our coastal regions remain safe.

Though being prepared for the crisis is one of the best ways to avoid it.


#Twitter is an amazing platform which has served many disaster victims in the past, as it works even when the Internet fails ! Yes it does, just a few steps need to activate it. It is a good tool to ask for help, inform on the ground situation, send/receive supplies.

I would especially recommend this for friends working in disaster prone zones.
