URGENT WEATHER MESSAGES

1. PURPOSE

*TO PUBLISH URGENT WEATHER RELATED MESSAGES AS FAST AND SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE ON THE WEATHER WEBSITE OF KOBUS BOTHA.

* TO INFORM PEOPLE DEPENDENT AND INTERESTED IN WEATHER ABOUT VERY IMPORTANT, BUT URGENT INFORMATION ABOUT WEATHER WHICH MIGHT HAVE AN INFLUENCE ON THEIR ACTIVITIES WITHIN HOURS. IT COULD ALSO BE USED BY THE PUBLIC TO SUPPLY INFORMATION ABOUT IMPORTANT WEATHER HAPPENINGS - NOT ONLY SEVERE WEATHER IN THEIR AREA BUT ALSO GOOD NEWS ABOUT GOOD RAINS, ETC.

* THE SYSTEM WAS DEVELOPED SO THAT ANY ONE CAN PUBLISH A MESSAGE ON AN EXTREMELY SIMPLE WAY- AND VERY FAST. TO ACCOMMODATE THIS, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY FOR MISUSE OF THE SYSTEM- OR EVEN WRONG OR FALSE MESSAGES. EVERY BODY WHO PUBLISH MUST SUPPLY HIS/HER TELEPHONE NUMBER- PREFERABLY A CELL. IF NOT, THE MESSAGE MIGHT BE IMMEDIATELY DELETED. IN CASES OF DOUBT THE PUBLISHER WILL BE PHONED.

2. WHO CAN PUBLISH A MESSAGE

ANY ONE- BUT SEE THE RULES ABOVE . ENGLISH OR AFRIKAANS

3. WHAT TO DO TO PUBLISH

JUST CLICK ON "SIGN GUESTBOOK"- TYPE IN YOUR NAME, SURNAME AND TOWN IN THE FIRST BLOCK. THEN TYPE IN YOUR MESSAGE. THIS SHOULD BE AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE. THEN TYPE IN YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER- PREFERABLY YOUR CELL. CLICK ON "SIGN GUESTBOOK" AGAIN. YOUR MESSAGE WILL BE IMMEDIATELY ON THE MESSAGE BOOK! YOU NEED ONLY ABOUT ONE MINUTE FOR THIS.

4. HOW LONG WILL THE MESSAGES BE PUBLISHED

THEY WILL BE DELETED DAILY- IF POSSIBLE. SOME MIGHT BE DELETED AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS- DEPENDING ON THE TYPE OF MESSAGE AND MY AVAILABILITY.

THIS IS A FIRST AND AN EXPERIMENT- THERE MIGHT BE PROBLEMS LIKE MISUSE. IN THAT CASE THE SYSTEM WILL BE CHANGED AND THE PUBLIC CUT OUT.
