Oil Still Gushing into the Gulf of Mexico
Oil continuous to gush out of the leakage in the pipes below the exploded drill-rig in the Gulf of Mexico. Here are some links I came across:
- a photo gallery;
- various GIS resources, including links to shapefiles;
- the google earth blog links tovarious kml files and georeferenced images;
- google has its own site devoted to the spill;
- there is a grassroots mapping project going on;
- and of course, Paul Krugman has his thoughts.

- a Valdez reporter on the gushing oil
- drilling for oil is more risky than it used to be
