Mumbai:
On a day when terror revisited Mumbai, Mumbaikars joined hands on social networking sites to help each other and share information.
Twitter was flooded with tweets from people offering to help - the hashtag
#here2help was one of the top Twitter trends on July 13.
An online Google Docs spreadsheet 'Mumbai Help' that lists all points of contact for help is also being massively shared. The document can be accessed
here.
Users can add their information to the spreadsheet, including details such as their location, contact information, and how they can help. Users are offering up their homes for victims to stay in, food, rides, and medical assistance.
As of Wednesday afternoon, over 300 people had added their name to the document offering help.
Another site, called "
Mumbai Unites", lists people who are stranded, require help or shelter, as well as safety tips and helpline numbers. Users can contribute by sending tweets containing the hashtag #MumbaiBlasts or #Here2Help, or by filling out a form on the website.
