Things are happening.

And alot of things are happening each day. So If you like to stay up-to-date you have to dig through a lot of news sites or RSS feeds to hear about the latest buzz.

The brand new website “Actual Information Portal” is a great way to see news coming in almost real-time. The articles originate from various big news providers like Reuters and AP.

They use some slide-over ads to get some money in which are sometimes a little bit annoying. But anyway it’s a great website to stay informed and you can even chose from different topics like science, culture, economy, technology and some more!

Check it out by clicking on the logo.

Worst case scenario

The explosion of the “Deepwater Horizon” drilling rig on April 20, 2010 triggered the worst oil disaster in the history of the United States. 11 workers died and 17 were injured at the explosion. Until BP managed to cap the gushing oil wellhead on July 15, 2010, 90 million to 180 million gallons of crude oil were released into the Gulf of Mexico.

How to stay informed?

Due to the massive amount of information which mainstream news media spread, people all over the world watch and comment this horrible event.

The most important thing for affected people is to keep informed. So I collected a few links which might be interesting.
