Katrina and the Internet
Like most people around the world, I have been closely following the updates from New Orleans. The internet allows us to gain information that would never have been possible only a few years ago and it often seems we're looking at a movie rather than the centre of the city.
My cycling friend and clubmate, Steven, is here in Grenoble for a year to study and he comes from New Orleans. He knows that his family are all safe, but he also knows that his house in New Orleans is underwater.
I found some interesting links online.
Brendan Loy had some interesting things to say before and after the hurricane arrived, as well as links to other sites.

This is a great blog with much good info.
My main interest is genealogy, and I have written a genealogy book which you can find along with many articles at my site. I believe it's the only genealogy book of its kind, dealing specifically with search for noble ancestors.
I just came across your blog about alabama genealogy and wanted to drop you a note telling you how impressed I was with the information you have posted here.
