Bangalore: Myanmar's Cyclone Nargis reminds us that we can't stop nature's fury. But a group of techies and communicators believe they can help people cope with such tragedies - via cyberspace.

Worldwidehelp.blogspot.com is an online venture started with volunteers, including those from Mumbai, following the tsunami of December 2004. Currently, it has been continuing its work at disaster time in different parts of the globe, in varying ways.

"We're trying to get information about the situation in Myanmar after Cyclone Nargis. If you have access to reliable information about the situation on ground and what kind of help is needed, leave a note in the comments at (our blog)," said Mumbai-based Peter Griffin, who has long been behind the online site.

The blog was started by some founders and members of the SEA EAT (South East Asian Earthquake and Tsunami) blog, wiki and database. The latter gained worldwide attention at the time of the earthquake and tsunami on Dec 26, 2004.

Now called The World Wide Help Group, it has since remobilised to aid in other relief efforts.

Today, it has spawned a number of other online ventures - The South East Asian Earthquake and Tsunami blog, the Tsunami Help Wiki, Tsunami Enquiries and Helplines or Emergency Services, Tsunami News Updates, Tsunami Help Offered, Tsunami Help Needed, and more.
