Some things to look forward to

Ed Terpening

Blogs are wonderful organic creatures, aren't they? Every day, a little growth here and there. Fortunately, we know the DNA of this blog. Here are some things to come:

  • Interactive Tour. In creating this blog, we had so many photographs from our archives to choose from it was difficult to select only one or two pictures per post. There are also events that just make more sense when seen in animation, like the progress of the fire within the city. The tour will allow you to explore and learn more about posts that interest you. Or, you can start with the tour and find your way back into related blog posts. Should be fun. Watch for this the first week of April.
  • Children. Think kids are best seen and not heard? Guess again. Read recollections of grownups as child-survivors of the quake. There’s more than a bit of wisdom in their stories, as well as wonderful humor.
  • China Town. We’ll recapture the story of how a disaster-stricken community was almost dispossessed of their land. We’ll also take a sneak peek at the Chinese Historical Society of America’s upcoming exhibit on the earthquake.
  • Science. Watch the blog team take the Wells Fargo Museum’s earthquake simulator for a spin. Guest bloggers will talk about events at local science museums like the Exploratorium, and science topics such as the state of the art in earthquake prediction and seismic sciences.
  • Interactive Calendar. An amazing array of events are planned in the Bay Area, including local museums, earthquake walks, and preparedness expositions. A calendar will be available next week, and we'll provide first-hand coverage of select events.
