In the light of the devastating earthquake in Nepal, the MIT community is planning to meet to discuss ideas to help the relief efforts using technology. The attendees can brainstorm ideas and self-organize into teams that have complementary skillsets to execute these ideas. Participants can think about using tweets, visual data, crowdsourcing methods, and other technologies to facilitate relief work, locate people, provide services, or simply make the world aware of the extent of this tragedy.
