"In response to the devastating earthquake in Japan, YouTube has launched a special Missing Person Finder channel with video messages from the various shelters and those affected by the quake.\nThe channel is just the latest social media effort dedicated to helping quake victims reconnect or locate loved ones.\nJust hours after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, Google created a special crisis response page that offers users a way to get the latest information about the quake and an updated page of resources. Google Japan also has a localized version of the page. \nThe YouTube channel is particularly nice because it offers visual exposure for people to get out their message. For friends and family members in other parts of the world, it's also a way to find out if loved ones are OK.\nWhat do you think of the way social media is being used to help keep individuals informed and connected in Japan and abroad? Let us know."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
