Disaster in Japan - through the eyes of TYPO3 community members

It has past now 1 week since a massive magnitude 9.0 earthquake hit Northern Japan. Nature shocked us all not only by shaking the earth we built our houses onto and walk with our feet, it sent also a disruptive 10 meter high tsunami wave traveling up to 10 km inland along the east coast. Fire was spread and - as it would not be already enough - then also invisible radiation was detected in the air coming from a nuclear power plant in Fukushima prefecture. Earth, water, fire and air! The 2011 T?hoku Chih? Taiheiy?-oki Jishin was the most powerful earthquake ever hit Japan, and one of the four most powerful earthquakes ever in the world since modern recording began.

TYPO3 CeBIT 2011

TYPO3 was awarded a spot at the CeBIT Open Source Lounge for this year and occupied a small booth from the 1st until the 5th of March. The Open Source Lounge is sponsored by CeBIT. We shared a larger area with other Open Source projects like Enlightenment, VLC, XAMPP and Plone.
