Support the independent voice of Houston and help keep the future of Houston Press free.
Thanks to
Eric Bergerat the
Chron, we found this stunning bit of technology -- an interactive
panorama shot of Bolivar Islandput together by the Dallas firm
Hawkeye Media.
The map takes a while to load, and you have to blunder your way through navigating it (if you're as non-computer-savvy as we are), but man -- you can swoop and glide, zoom in and out and just be shocked at all the devastation.
Well worth checking out.

Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
