Video: Crisis Response Triad

This video depicts the compassionate, collaborative work that was the hallmark of the Haiti Response. 
Unlike the government's response to Katrina, the Haiti response launched three faces that are collectively known as the 
"Crisis Response Triad":
     
1) WiFi Network for relief workers
     2) Social Media access, which was the primary and most reliable means for Haitians to communicate with their loved ones overseas
     3) Cloud Computing

Perhaps one of the most innovative facets of Cloud Computingis the incorporation of new applications that are built 
specifically for the immediate needs of the relief workers of Haiti. Hundreds of web developers have created new web-based applications (such as, the We Have, We Need project that has been hailed the Craigs List for the crisis in Haiti) that allow for more specific searching or execution of specific relief for 
Haitians. Essentially, its been able to link relief workers with the Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), local Haitians, Haitians abroad, the Haitian Government and other countries to address specific needs and to get them the requisite resources quickly and efficiently.
