We have been very involved with the Burmese community in New York and decided to start up a blog to get the latest news about Cyclone Nargis out there. www.burmaemergency.wordpress.com
We also started working on finding stories surrounding this topic.

Here is a piece I did for the Wall Street Journal (the first one I pitched, produced, shot and edited):
