About this blog

What is this anyway?-
 A blog chronicling environmental disaster sites, basically.  And a fun little side project for me.  I plan to provide supplemental information in the form of links for y'all to visit as well. 

 Why this?-
 This blog is inspired by sprol.com, a website which apparently no longer exists. 
The premise of sprol.com was google sightseeing, at the time many posts were created, google maps' satellite imaging was a new technology.  But it was different google sightseeing than many other websites provided.  Instead of focusing on fun tourist destinations, it was our "ticket to the worst places on Earth." 
Since it's gone, I just want to put something in this place.  Surely there must be an interest for this sort of thing.

When to post?-
Weekly, hopefully.   How does Thursday sound?

Who are you?-
Just a simple guy.  Geographer turned business student.  Hoping to start work soon.
