The L.A. Times which has been providing non-stop updates on the blazing California wildfires on its website and breaking news blog has added a Twitter profile to the mix at @latimesfires. The twitter launched about three hours ago and alredy 49 has updates.
We added to the L.A. Times Fire Twitter our fire resources post from earlier today which includes several other Twitter profiles covering the fires.
Other Web 2.0 related posts include this one from Danny Sullivan which covers wildfire map resources like the Google Maps mashup that has been cited by numerous blogs over the past two days. More map tools and resources can be found here. If you are interested in the technology being used to cover the fires and alert people about approaching fires you might also like Mobile Messaging 2.0's post discussing all the reverse 911 calls.
