For more than a week now, WRAL TechWire and WRAL.com have published a series of stories explaining how technology could be used to keep people connected and informed during Hurricane Florence. We also provided information about free virtual health care and free housing from Airbnb partners.
To help you keep this information handy, here are links to those stories.
We hope you found them useful.
We certainly are open to suggestions about other topics, and we will strive to build a data base of stories to help you prepare for the next hurricane. Send comments to WRAL TechWire Editor Rick Smith at: rsmith@wral.com
