Indian Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami Information and Aid

With an esti­mated toll of nearly half a mil­lion over a quar­ter mil­lion peo­ple, the 2004 Indian Ocean earth­quake ranks among the worst nat­ural dis­as­ters in his­tory. Wikipedia, the free ency­clo­pe­dia has a wealth of infor­ma­tion on the earth­quake and result­ing Tsunami. At the site you´ll also find an exten­sive list of char­i­ties and aid orga­ni­za­tions accept­ing donations.

More infor­ma­tion can be found at the excel­lent 28-blogger col­lab­o­ra­tion, “The South-East Asia Earth­quake and Tsunami: The SEA-EAT blog”.
