I think this is a great way to get people interested in emergency preparedness


Social Media: Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse

This is making the rounds, and yes, it is from an official blog by the Centers for Disease Control to get people talking about emergencies and preparing for all sorts of disasters. Since Zombies are so darn popular these days, it was natural to throw them into the mix. It is certainly getting a response. Twitter is atwitter with it, it's making the rounds on Facebook, and it's popping up on e-mail lists as well.

So, learn how to prepare for your Zombie Apocalypse--because nowhere is safe from disaster.

I'm just waiting for Those with No Sense of Humour to question why our government is putting resources into preventing Zombie Apocalypses. You mark my words, some wackadoo will.

PS You can get badges and widgets for the Zombie Apocalypse here: http://emergency.cdc.gov/socialmedia/zombies.asp. Enjoy!
