What are some reliable sites for information on the Kobe/Great Hanshin earthquake?


Other than Wikipediea and BBC.

The 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake (M=6.9), commonly referred to as the Kobe earthquake, was one of the most devastating earthquakes ever to hit Japan; more than 5,500 were killed and over 26,000 injured. The economic loss has been estimated at about $US 200 billion. The proximity of the epicenter, and the propagation of rupture directly beneath the highly populated region, help explain the great loss of life and the high level of destruction. The spectacular collapse of the Hanshin expressway illustrates the effects of the high Nishinomiya Bridge loads that were imposed on structures in the area. The strong ground motions that led to collapse of the Hanshin Express way also caused severe liquefaction damage to port and wharf facilities.

    My advice about PubSub: Find a product that consumers can actually use. During my time at PubSub I constantly struggled to find uses for the product myself. No one there could really explain to me what the real benefit of the service was. Honestly I didn't ask a lot of questions because I needed the paycheck (which eventually disappeared anyway).

    I think the strength of PubSub, as it was explained to me, was “up to the minute information”. But the more I thought about it, the less I could find uses for it. They had RSS based information about earthquakes and air travel delays. But you couldn't access the site from a mobile so the air traffic delays didn't do me a ton of good unless I was sitting there refreshing the page before I left for the airport. I still have no idea why you would need up to the second information about earthquakes unless you're doing some kind of geological research.

    It seemed as if everyone there was committed to a technology or a concept with no clear idea how the average person would use it. I hope, Ian, that in this latest incarnation you have a clear plan to deliver a useful and relevant product (and not just a facebook app).
