Here is a mashup of some resources I created/curated to assist with providing quality information to those who need it about the San Bruno Natural Gas Line tragedy.
How NOT to respond to a tragedy on Twitter cc: @ed #sanbrunofire re: @onyxcafe #boycott
I was checking @Ed‘s Twitter tonight after hearing that he was checking out a DM spam incident that @dannybrown was experiencing today and came across information about the San Bruno Fire. Then I ran across a couple of tweets in response to a company that was doing the most tasteless promotion. This is pretty bad and I am sure there will be a lot of people that will be calling for a boycott.

- @stop Major gas explosion in a neighborhood
- Daly City, CA, if you don’t boycott @onyxcafe for that tweet, you’ve really fallen off the left edge. What a rancid tweet!
.@shelisrael I saw plenty as a firefighter, Shel. That’s why @onyxcafe should be boycotted!
