I'm just glad that someone as caring about the public welfare aswell as researching new and improved methods of protecting public interest is an acknowledged professional to consult.

I keep dreading the san antonio fault, I've been saying for years that magnet's would allow house's to hover above ground during such an event.

It could become government legislation one day when some more influencial people at the front of this generation get the nod to head the departments.

Charles Bolden of NASA has just organised three directors jobs that I assume will be managing the new research and development funding for the NASA 2011 budget, with some gratitude it could perhaps consider a simple building that hovers on magnets, it would be useful for off world exploration bases and would work for any surface, it would probably be the start of anti gravity platforms.

Anyway...

Dear Brian, Awesome details and graphics - mahalo nui for taking the time to do that after pulling a 40-hour shift! As I posted on Twitter, no apologies needed from PTWC - I personally believe the collective consciousness kicked in to "Butterfly Effect on Steroids" and helped calm the Pacific. I suppose you also saw last week that DOD has approved use of social media for its personnel.

I've been asking my followers to send thank you's to all of you there, as we do so appreciate the work, the intelligence, the caring, and the pressure involved in all that you do for us.

Actually, the apps.gov only lists ToS agreement with GSA - each Department has to review/approve the ToS agreements for their use. DoC has signed a few of the ToS agreements and is in the process of establishing a process to set up government accounts.

Coverage was awesome Brian, a PTWC broadcast on Twitter would solve a lot of problems immediately since a push feed of this nature can be subscribed to via just about any device. Imagine a future in which you can subscribe to the PTWC's warning feed on your cell phone. Need more information, click on the link and visit the site. If there's a problem with management in this case that's exactly where the problem resides. I can't account for that kind of shortsightedness, but can tell you that use of Twitter as a warning/information platform solve a lot of problems without investment, immediately.

BTW went trail running yesterday and as was thinking of suit designs.

Cool to get a peek behind the scenes, John.

Shame you had to shut down official social accounts on Twitter and Facebook. PTWC is part of NOAA, correct? Which itself is part of Dept of Commerce? I was under the impression that most ambiguity around ToU's ended a while back, with apps.gov listing approved social networks and Twitter's ToS being widely viewed as gov-friendly. Heck, even Commerce's @SecLocke is on Twitter (as are 2,600+ other accounts in http://GovTwit.com).

I agree with John you did a killer job covering the events from yesterday. And I dream of a Gov 2.0 movement as so much could be learned form a potentially tragic situation.

Awesome blog post, Brian!

Will definately be following you and your tweets during the next emergency situation.

Looking forward to the Gov 2.0 movement and seeing a forward thinking approach to future events.

Aloha,
