Simply propagate the picture, and the links to www.bringmadeleinehome.com, which has breaking news and numerous distinctive photos and PDF posters to download and distribute, ‘just in case…’
I know I know, there are many worthy causes, but I don’t have to explain….
If you don’t know the case, let me just quote from a typical blog posting…
[About 10] days ago, 3 year old Madeleine McCann disappeared from her bed in an apartment on holiday in the Algarve, Portugal. Just yards away her parents were eating dinner, checking on Maddie and her younger twin brother and sister in their beds every half hour.
Tragically, when her mother checked in on the children at 10pm, only half an hour after their father had, the window was slightly open and Maddie had disappeared.
Their are increasing rewards being offered for information leading to Madeleine’s return, and the hope is that at least propagating the story and the pictures, that someone somewhere may make a chance sighting or it may jog someone’s memory.
Madeleine has a distinctive ‘blotch’ on her right iris if you look carefully at the photos on www.bringmadeleinehome.com, which will help to identify her.
Oh, and you Twitterholics – spread this round the Twittosphere too… thanks!
UPDATE: there’s an informative press release from the Virtual Global Taskforce which includes links to some useful sites and phone numbers in multiple languages here, including the following:
Disappearance of Madeleine McCann Web Appeal for Information
Wednesday May 9, 2007
Portuguese Police have extended a web based plea for information following the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
The latest appeal has been issued by the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre and the Virtual Global Taskforce (VGT) at the request of the Portuguese authorities.
The appeal is sited at www.ceop.gov.uk and www.virtualglobaltaskforce.com. It appears in English, Portuguese and Spanish and urges people to come forward with any information that could help police find the missing youngster.
Both sites receive extensive daily hits from browsers in more than 130 different countries. It is hoped the move will help extend the reach of the appeal to as many people as possible, including holiday goers who may have recently returned from Portugal, or be intending to visit.
Any information should be passed to directly to the Portuguese police on 00 351 282 405 400.
Two forensic behavioural analysts from the CEOP Centre have been assisting with this inquiry. They have been made available to the authorities to ensure they have the full range of expertise available for every possible avenue of investigation.
