Epson Helps Typhoon Maring Flood Victims in Laguna and Aurora

Wazzup Pilipinas!

I admire private companies who incorporate social responsibility in their business. It always gives me pleasure to hear about companies who would exert the extra effort to provide donations or relief good for our brothers and sisters who were affected by man-made or natural disasters.

I hope all private companies will follow the example of those companies who allot a fortune of their budget to provide for the needs of our fellowmen stricken by unfortunate circumstances.

A great example is when the Epson group of companies donated PhP1 million to the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP) to help victims of the destruction brought by the southwest monsoon (enhanced by Typhoon Maring/Trami) last August.

Twitter Alerts: Critical Information When You Need It Most

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Twitter has launched Twitter Alerts, a new feature that brings us one step closer to helping users get important and accurate information from credible organizations during emergencies, natural disasters or moments when other communications services aren’t accessible.

We know from our users how important it is to be able to receive reliable information during these times. With that in mind, last year we announced Lifeline (a feature that helps Japanese users find emergency accounts during crises), and since then, we’ve been working on a related feature for people around the world.

If you sign up to receive an account’s Twitter Alerts, you will receive a notification directly to your phone whenever that account marks a Tweet as an alert. Notifications are delivered via SMS, and if you use Twitter for iPhone or Twitter for Android, you’ll also receive a push notification*. Alerts also appear differently on your home timeline from regular Tweets; they will be indicated with an orange bell.
