Rescue Wiki is a new website to assist Search and Rescue efforts around the world. Like DangerData.com it is an experimental approach to enlisting online help for SAR efforts.
Wikis can be a good way to collectively process information if you are dealing with a computer savvy crowd, but in my experience they limit participation compared to blogs which make it easier to comment and to passively participate.
Rescue Wiki has both, which may be a great solution. Check it out and let him know what you think! Rescue Wiki

Thanks for the nice comments and the link to my site. My blog & site are a one man show right now, so I appreciate your help in getting the word out. I’ll link to your blog as well.
Great, thanks Ian. I think a key to online SAR efforts working well will be that the site relies on and inspires community involvement without the webmaster having to do a lot of maintenance. I was surprised how much “maintenance” there was here at Joe Duck just from the Kim discussion and despite my very open comment policy.
Finally got my blogroll back on my sidebar and you’re on there, now.
Peace people
We love you
