The Windoor's curator insight, November 16, 2015 2:22 PM

Otro ejemplo más de la bondad y la unión en momentos tan difíciles como lo fueron los instantes posteriores a los atentados pero, ¿hubiera sido posible sin las redes sociales? ¿hubiera sido posible sin la rapidez de Twitter? Quién sabe cuántas vidas pudo salvar un simple hashtag #PorteOuverte. Ejemplar.

Emma Klak's curator insight, December 8, 2015 7:42 PM

This is just a caption of a photo but it is shown how social media was able to bring together the help of those in need and those who can help. With the streets empty other than police, people struggled to find safe havens. We see just how powerful a tweet with a couple of words or an image is. 

Mashable --> the source, is known for tweeting insightful ideas and prompt news. This article that I originally found as a tweet was able to reach millions; even those who are unable to gain access to regular television news.
