Blogosphere Missing Persons Alert

In: Current Affairs|Weblogs

1 Dec 2006

I’m going to save the commentary on this one other than to say that I think it’s great to see a distributed social network being put to good use.

CNET editor James Kim and his family are missing, so many bloggers are using their reach to alert the public in Amber Alert fashion.  Here is the link to the CNET post that includes information on the car the family was driving, when and where they were last seen, and who to contact if you have any information that might be helpful.

Let’s hope this has a more positive result than the last time bloggers tried to help find missing people.

About this blog

Formerly titled "one man's pop culture commentary", I've decided to re-label this for a few reasons:
(1) It's now home for all my online 'stuff'
(2) the search engines like it better
(3) the posts will be less pop-culture focused

Thanks for dropping by.
