| Abstract: The Internet is a viable means of getting the disaster preparedness and prevention message out to the masses. As noted by the media in recent months, the Internet has truly come into its own as the communication and commerce means envisioned and anticipated by its earliest proponents. As we near the Year 2000, the futurists predict that technologies will continue to grow and expand. This paper explores why the Internet is such an effective communication tool for disaster management and other global issues of concern today while looking at some of the more progressive, creative, and futuristic uses of technologies associated with the medium. | |||
