(Can I just say, these people are casually tweeting in three languages. I love that sort of thing.)

It's still a good idea to send money, too:

Irish people, you can donate €5 to UNICEF Haiti Appeal by texting AID to 57500.

UK people can give £5 to DEC Haiti by texting GIVE to 70077.

USA people can give $10 to the Red Cross by texting haiti to 90999.

Canadian people can give $5 the Salvation Army by texting HAITI to 45678.

There are lots of other ways to give too - you can give to Partners in Health and MSF online, or to Oxfam, or DEC, or the International Red Cross.

They're still having aftershocks which are bringing lumps of loose rubble down. It's not very funny out there.
