RSS is great for notification, and even as the glue for distributed conversations...and tags are a great aggregator of user-defined perspective on life. I guess the important thing with catastrophies is to ride (monitor) the emerging tags of the situation, and quickly come up with a post, like yours, that sets some suggested tags so they can help to be aggregated in a few tags, therefore information is less scattered, and can be found...but I guess not everyone will read You're It!, so we do, in the end have to rely on the emerging folksonomy to tease out a few dominant tags the natural way. I guess the next step is using RSS to present or re-publish (pull together the information in the tagosphere) in a public aggregator blog or wiki, similar to nptech.
