Welcome to Oxford
Bem Vindo (a) a Oxford
For the visitor this presents a challenge there is no single building that
dominates Oxford, no famous fortress or huge cathedral that will give you
a short-cut view of the city.
Nor does Oxford flaunt its treasures; behind department stores lurk grand
Palladian doorways or half-hidden crannies of medieval architecture. The
entrance to a college may be tucked down a narrow alleyway, and even
then it is unlikely to be signposted.

In the hours after two bombs exploded within 100 yards of each other in
Boston's Copley Square shortly before 3 p.m. on April 15, the FBI set up a
hotline for citizens to use to tell investigators about photos and videos taken
in the area at the time of the incident. On Thursday, investigators released
surveillance photos of two suspects and asked the public for help identifying
them. A massive, sometimes violent, manhunt ensued and continued into
the day on Friday.
Early in the investigation, police stressed that photos and videos would be
crucial to solving the crime. "It's our intent to go through every frame of
FBI special agent Richard DesLauriers, who leads the investigation, also
said last week that "assistance from the public" would be critical.
"They were asking, 'Was anybody there who had any images?' said Will
Stofega, an IDC analyst who was at the airport and was asked about images
by investigators.
While there are software tools galore to help with facial recognition and
pattern recognition, "it still comes down to having human eyes sort through
sources of interest," Gold said. "Despite our strides in video analysis and
image processing, at the end of the day, the systems we have in place are
still childish in their abilities compared to humans."
Meanwhile, Twitter users near the marathon finish line started tweeting as
soon as the bombs exploded, and their actions illustrated both the upside
and the downside of the use of social media in emergencies.
For instance, Twitter was a useful communications tool for public authorities
like the Boston police and marathon organizers, but many people also used
it to spread reports that were questionable or just plain inaccurate.
The Boston Police Department's Twitter log showed the positive side of
social media. It was updated minute by minute in the aftermath of the
bombings, often with instructions to avoid certain areas, or with information
about where police officers might be stationed. It was also a source of
information on Friday as police warned residents in Boston and surrounding
communities to stay indoors as the suspects were sought.
Other social media sites were also useful sources of information. For
instance, Google set up a Person Finder, as it did after the Japan earthquake
two years ago, to help people connect with friends and loved ones after
the incident.
