In the EOC…and a gigantic sinkhole

Seriously, a pretty perfect morning here at the Emergency Operations Center.

Oh, and they have a gigantic sinkhole here which sounds pretty bad. EMA Director Keck will be briefing us this AM.

Sounds like the news has already caught wind of it and OEMA has briefed on the situation this AM.

Who waits for the newspaper?

C’mon, it’s 2014! Who waits for the newspaper?!!?!?!?

Even before the newspaper is printed, the information is obsolete…like finger nails on the chalkboard old.

Try to save a few trees and check out this thing called the internets.

It’s amazing.

Cold water challenge in a restricted area? No joy!

Since this is a restricted area, I just asked the commanding officer of the USCG station if I could do the Firefighter cold water challenge here under the Golden Gate Bridge…they said no.

Don’t worry, I’ll keep trying.

How is the DigiDOC used at ARC HQ

Good overview on how the American Red Cross (ARC) uses social media.

Through the heat maps provided by Radian-6, ARC has the ability to better visualize the needs of the worldwide community.

Definitely a commercial for American Red Cross, Radian-6, and Dell.

Bonus: It also features a few friends too (Hi Gloria and Wendy!)
