(Telecompaper) Google's Dan Fredinburg has died in an avalanche which was triggered by the earthquake that hit Nepal last week, TechCrunch reported.

Some 18 other climbers have been killed. Google's Crisis Response team has launched Person Finder for Nepal, and is working to get updated satellite imagery to aid in the recovery effort.
