Of the sites we've been monitoring to get news and information about Katrina's aftermath, none have struck quite as hard as the minute by minute accounting by PR guy, Brian Oberkirch on his Slidell Hurricane Damage Blog .  He's doing an amazing job of  bringing us in while events unfold and rounding up sorely needed informational resources for people in New Orleans and Slidell, LA, an eastern suburb on Lake Pontchartrain.  Brian has a survivor site roundup (kind of like the message boards New York used during 9/11) which, when you think about it, says the most about this cataclysm. 

 

Thanks Dave Parmet for showing us Brian's site.  Thanks to Blogspotting for amplifying the message.  Hopefully folks up here in N.E. will find this a source of information.
