    NETWORKS TO THE RESCUE: TWEETING RELIEF AND AID DURING TYPHOON ONDOY A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture, and Technology By Xenia Yasmin Zia Gutierrez Morales, B.A. April 26, 2010 Washington DC Copyright 2010 by Xenia Yasmin Zia Gutierrez Morales All Rights Reserved ii NETWORKS TO THE RESCUE: TWEETING RELIEF AND AID DURING TYPHOON ONDOY Xenia Yasmin Zia Gutierrez Morales, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Mirjana Dedaic, Ph.D. ABSTRACT In September 2009, the forces of social networking sites were harnessed to create a civil society network in aid of disaster relief operations in the Philippines. This occured spontaneously, individually and then collectively in the midst of tropical storm Ondoy, forming a networked group of individuals bonded by shared goals and identities. Using data from Twitter in general and the RockEdRadio Twitter Network in particular, this thesis traces the emergence of relief and rescue networks during the Ondoy Typhoon and subsequent flooding. Diffusion Theory and Theories of Networked Interaction are employed in the analysis of the architecture and operationality of the relevant disaster-relief oriented SNS networks. Furthermore, this thesis also analyses the content of selected Tweets and delves into the unique features of the Philippine context to explain how these online social networks of rescue and relief diffused so spontaneously, rapidly and seamlessly amidst challenging circumstances. The thesis concludes with recommendations regarding the use of SNS technologies in other national disaster scenarios. iii The research and writing of this thesis is dedicated to my father, Danilo Morales, my mother, Lourdes Morales and my sister, Armi Prisara Morales.

  • Origins There Is Not Enough Evidence to Assert What Conditions Gave Rise to the First Cities
    City A city is a relatively large and permanent human settlement.[1][2] Although there is no agreement on how a city is distinguished from a town within general English language meanings, many cities have a particular administrative, legal, or historical status based on local law. Cities generally have complex systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation. The concentration of development greatly facilitates interaction between people and businesses, benefiting both parties in the process, but it also presents challenges to managing urban growth.[3] A big city or metropolis usually has associated suburbs and exurbs. Such cities are usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban areas, creating numerous business commuters traveling to urban centers for employment. Once a city expands far enough to reach another city, this region can be deemed aconurbation or megalopolis. Origins There is not enough evidence to assert what conditions gave rise to the first cities. However, some theorists have speculated on what they consider suitable pre- conditions, and basic mechanisms that might have been important driving forces. The conventional view holds that cities first formed after the Neolithic revolution. The Neolithic revolution brought agriculture, which made denser human populations possible, thereby supporting city development.[4] The advent of farming encouraged hunter-gatherers to abandon nomadic lifestyles and to settle near others who lived by agricultural production. The increased population-density encouraged by farming and the increased output of food per unit of land created conditions that seem more suitable for city-like activities. In his book, Cities and Economic Development, Paul Bairoch takes up this position in his argument that agricultural activity appears necessary before true cities can form.
