Awesome video on the power Fb had on connecting victims of the recent tornados.

Here is a video that connects the victims of the recent tornados in the mid west. A lady by the name of Patty Bullion started a Facebook page where people post pictures of items found so that people can claim the lost items that were launched great distances by the tornados. Stories like this show us all the power of connectivity Facebook has.

  1. Wow, this is an amazing story. Before social media those pictures and images would be lost forever. It is great to see people using the site to help people rebuild their lives after a disaster like this.

    Thanks for posting.

  2. wow, i Agree great story! Only if there has always been this technology. This is not the first time i have heard of technology coming in handy in these situations. I heard of a man using his cell phone to search pictures on how to properly apply medical aid to a wound that he suffered while trapped under rubble after the Haiti earthquake.
