Please feel free to discard the first 1/2 message there. But to the point of this post, I'd actually like to ask a related question. I saw it mentioned in Tim O'Keefe's Content Matters blog that the univerisity's website was down for some time the day of the event preventing people from getting to critical information being posted there by the university administration. It called to my mind the importance of creating and maintaining a dark site. I'm looking to establish one for my company but haven't been able to find much in the way of good examples or best practices. Perhaps you or your readers here could help point me in the right direction or would be willing to share their own dark sites. michael clendenin Hi Neville,

You can see journalists from NBC, NPR, etc, using <a href="http://searchviews.com/archives/2007/04/virginia_tech_shootings.php" rel="nofollow">blog comments and facebook forums</a> to try to find eyewitnesses.
