A sense of eerie calm and uneasiness hangs over the capital, Kathmandu, as the aftershocks keep coming for a third day after the massive quake on Saturday. People are still trying to absorb what's happening to them and their city. Part of their anxiety appears to be fueled by a near complete absence of any real information.
Power lines are down and there is almost no Internet connectivity. Phone connections are spotty at best. Most people are camped outdoors so even where there is limited power back up there's no TV news to watch. This has made them anxious to buy newspapers every morning.

Near Kathmandu's famed Dharahara Tower, reduced to an enormous pile of red brick dust, dozens of people were clambering around the debris clicking smiling selfies and photos of their friends posing.
"This is earthquake tourism. This is not right," said 21-year-old business student Pawan Thapa who arrived from the suburbs to see how he could help. "They are more interested in clicking their selfies than understanding that it is a tragedy."

Facebook has activated its "Safety Check" feature in response to the earthquake in Nepal. The feature, launched in October, allows users to tell friends and family they are safe if they are in the middle of a disaster area.
Facebook engineers in Japan started development on the feature after the 2011 Japan earthquake and tsunami. The Kathmandu earthquake was one of the first natural disasters where it has been used.
Google, which lost an employee in an avalanche as a result of the earthquake, has activated its own disaster tool called "Person Finder" http://google.org/personfinder/2015-nepal-earthquake/ and is updating satellite imagery to help with relief efforts. Google is also donating $1 million toward relief efforts, the company said.

In Kathmandu, those who came to help are frightened, too. Kathmandu district chief administrator Ek Narayan Aryal says tents and water are being handed at 10 locations in Nepal's capital, but that the many aftershocks were leaving everyone jittery.
He says that "even the rescuers are scared and running because of them."

There's a bottleneck in the efforts to get relief to Nepal. The good news: Kathmandu's airport is open. The bad news: It's been a bumpy, frustration-filled experience for those arriving. The second bit of good news: Some aid vehicles have been able to travel overland from Indian to the stricken Nepalese city of Pokhara.
Ben Pickering, Save the Children's humanitarian adviser in Britain, calls that a positive sign. He emphasizes this, though: "The airport opening is a small miracle."

In a western part of Kathmandu, dozens of Nepali soldiers and Indian rescue workers pulled 16 bodies and one survivor from a collapsed green, three-story building that housed a church. Officials say a Christian meeting was being held on the second floor when the quake hit on Saturday.
One Indian national disaster response force, who did not want to be named, said "I really doubt anybody is alive here, but we have to keep trying and look."
The bodies were laid out, side by side, on a tarp, as crowds of onlookers were kept behind police tape. Several generators were set up to power the drills and saws used to dig through the building. Several other buildings in the area were damaged, but most appeared fine.
