Sprint employees blog on hurricane relief efforts

Michael Hardy writes in FCW.com:

Sprint Nextel employees have established "Sprint City," a six-acre home for hurricane relief workers at the Baton Rouge, La., fairgrounds.

According to the company, the camp was established within 48 hours of Hurricane Katrina's landfall in late August, and since then it has served as a base from which employees are working to re-establish wireless and wired service for those in the areas hit by the storm. About 300 Sprint Nextel employees and contractors are temporarily living there, protected by armed guards.

Employees based there are filing Web log entries on their experiences in a Sprint-hosted blog called "Dispatches from Sprint City."
