I've been stumbling on various links providing info from various sources, thought I'd post them in a single thread for those that want to follow the situation more closely. If I stumble across any more I will update it. Hopefully the mods can sticky this for people.

NHK World News stream with English translator:

If you want just the video without the twitter sidebar (saves PC resources a bit):

Multiple Twitter Streams (including one from The Tokyo Post):

Good to have this information out here where people can see it.

Also, it's weird seeing people tweet about earthquakes when I'm actually shaking from the very same quake.

GE sending 10 truck mounted turbine generators to Japan to help restore power loss. 3 are currently in Florida awaiting air transport--so up to roughly 60 MW of power is on the way soon! Hang in there guys!

Also incase anyone cares, Verizon is now making TV Japan available for now. Channel 1770 in my area at least. Note* No English.
