Please support Haitian relief efforts

It has been a while since I've written here and I do have several very good reasons for the absence. They'll be in the next post though.

I would like to encourage the readers to text YELE to 501501 to donate $5 dollars via Wyclef's Yele Haiti Fund, and if you text HAITI to 90999 you'll send $10 to the Redcross's relief fund, find out other ways to help at redcross.org as well.

As someone going into the disaster technology field, it has been hard to watch the relief efforts unfold. We really do have a long way to go in improving how we respond to disasters.

Please keep our Haitian brethren in your thoughts and prayers.
