TwitterLocal in Coralville
As I demonstrated earlier, TwitterLocal is a great tool to receive updates on events happening around the world. The recent flood in Coralville, Iowa shows another example of how people can stay connected and receive ground-level news from the people affected. One Coralville resident used Twitter to start up a group Flickr album for the Coralville floods.
I checked out TwitterLocal tonight and found this message:

UPDATE: 22 May 2008
Jabber feed is currently disabled until Twitter figures out what’s up. So for now, tweets will be few and far between. It sucks but what can you do?
Oh well– great idea for an app, maybe one day it will actually work.
