Disasters-A-Gogo!
Â
Tired of reading about yesterday’s catastrophies today? Fear not, we here at Geeknews live to serve you the latest in up-to-the-minute “incidents of interest” via Havaria Emergency and Disaster Information Services in Budapest, Hungary. Utilizing a realtime worldwide information sharing network, the National Association of Radio-Distress Signalling and Infocommunications feeds its gathered data and is displayed via an assortment of interactive icons displayed on a satellite map of the world. All you have to do is click on an icon of interest and detailed information on the incident is given, such as type of disaster, location, casualties, agency reports and a satellite image of the affected area.
Morbid perhaps? Human nature draws us to disasters whether it be driving by and oogling a car wreck, or watching the news about a sinkhole in Guatemala. Or perhaps its just comforting to some that these things are happening somewhere else than their home…
