UPDATE: The Multimedia section of the Glorietta Blast site is already up. Here’s a screenshot of the Flash interactive map that Justin Calingasan of our Tech team developed.
IT’S another tragedy, and sometimes it really gets disheartening to be the messenger who brings you the bad news. But it’s a job that somebody has to do.
Our Glorietta Blast Special Site is already up to give you all the latest developments on this tragedy.
You could also check out my Breaking News story on some of the bloggers who covered the Makati blast.
Here’s an interesting postscript: one of the bloggers I cited in my Blog Addicts entry and the Breaking News story apparently has been getting a lot of comments from visitors who stumbled upon his Multiply site via INQUIRER.net.
The blogger, whose nickname is Disney, gave INQUIRER.net permission to use his photos, some of which you can now see on our homepage as of this writing.
I believe you’ll see even more of this kind of convergence between mainstream media and bloggers/citizen journalists. Thanks again, Disney.

Kawawa naman ang mga civilians. Hirap na ngang gumising sa umaga ng walang almusal para makarating sa trabaho.
Paano na lang ang mga iniwang anak ng biktima?
Bakit hindi kayong mga nasa itanaas ang magpatayan?
Yung kapitbahay ko single parent lang kasamang namatay. Tinatanong nung bata sa akin kung nasaan ang nanay niya.
Kayong mga nasa itanaas hindi niyo ba nakikita? Hindi niyo ba nararamdaman ang pagiging makatao. Suriin ninyo ang kalagayan ng maliliit upang maiwasan ninyo ang trahedyang ganito.
Anong uri ng ginhawa ang gusto ninyo?
