In America, 'Big Brother' has a mobile and he's learnt how to text. The U.S. government now has a system which can send emergency alerts to everyone. From blizzards to terror threats - the warnings will go straight to people's phones. But as Marina Portnaya reports, many feel it's creating needless panic.
