Amber Alert on Twitter: 21st c. Communication

Missing girl's father finds help through Twitter. Message regarding man's missing teenage daughter is spreading across the service at an extremely rapid rate. [CNET News.com]

On Twitter I saw this "Amber Alert" this morning. My first question was where did this occur. The location seemed to be South Carolina. That shouldn't matter too much because we live in a country that someone could fly across in hours. Mexico or the Caribbean are only hours away. A missing child could be taken anywhere quickly. It's good that everyone can know via Twitter.

On a related subject also on Twitter David Stephenson posted a link to his emergency tips

"check my emergency tips http://tinyurl.com/26zjsy"

I hope that those evacuated by today's terrible Southern California fires or having any other emergency can find and use some 21st-century communication resources.
