Actually, thanks to your comment and inbound links to my article, I've discovered there's another field called "emergency syndication." Quite intriguing! I'm about to write a followup post on that. - Amy Gahran Editor, Contentious Thanks, Philippe.

I have been looking into this area for some time now and closest to an organized emergency network based on RSS are the ones set up after the Tsunami and Katrina. However, a nice little tool called Feedbeep caught my eye and I am using it here in Europe to bridge the gap between RSS updates and SMS which is widely used here on the "old continent" but it works in the US too. You can check it out here http://www.feedbeep.com Hi Amy,

Completely agree with your post. I have been looking into
this area for some time now and closest to an organized
emergency network based on RSS are the ones set up after
the Tsunami and Katrina. However, a nice little tool called
Feedbeep caught my eye and I am using it here in Europe
to bridge the gap between RSS updates and SMS which is widely
used here on the “old continent” but it works in the US too.
