Digital Tsunami

Digital Tsunami ... it's a term use by Kompas to describe the
situation where many Asian countries were plugged off the internet
world as a result of Taiwan's earthquake.

The analogy it bears is striking. While the effect of Aceh's tsunami
was beyond doubt, in the digital world this one is remarkably
disastrous. The fact that both happened on 26th of December is even
more striking ...
