Notify Chicago

[slam]

so the city of chicago has a new utility set up for emergencies. go to their web site, give them your address and your phone number, and if there's ever a health/terrorist/traffic/etc emergency in the city, they can get the word out easily.

http://webapps.cityofchicago.org/NotifyChicago/

probably not a bad idea.

probably not a good URL!

i mean it's a cool idea.. but seriously if i got wind of a terrorist attack do they really expect me to fill out a lengthy registration form on their website to report it...

[slam]

lh, you fill out the registration form, and then they'll notify you.

foolio.
