YouTube Person Finder Channel Launched Broadcasting Japan Quake Information

The March 11 8.9 magnitude Japan earthquake has struck a quake on the Internet. All main web portals and social media websites have done tracking reports to the disaster. The world largest search engine Google has created a Person Finder page and updated with latest information about the quake, tsunami. Google Earth has timely updated quake aftermath satellite photos. On March 18, Google owned video site YouTube has launched a new channel named 'YouTube Person Finder' - a channel that aggregates video messages from the sufferers of the massive earthquake and tsunami that hit Northeastern Japan one week ago.

Sufferers of the disasters could upload video clips about their current state so that their friends and families know they're OK.

How to Use YouTube Person Finder
You can search videos by names of a missing person in Kanji, Katakana, or Hiragana letters (Sorry Japanese letters only), the name of the place they lived, or the name of the shelter locations.

You can also browse videos within the module and also on the playlist embedded within the video navigator module in middle of the channel.

All the video clips in the new channel are provided by TBS.
