New Orleans City Leaders Relied Upon VoIP Almost Entirely – Providing Critical Link In Organizing Response and Communicating With
President Bush This Wall Street JOurnal article describes how New Orleans city leaders relied virtually entirely on VoIP services for five days
after the failure of basic landline phone service, and mobile and satellite phones, which eventually lost battery power and could not be recharged. Mayor
Ray Nagin and his inner circle, holed up in the Hyatt Regency Hotel a few blocks from City Hall, couldn't communicate with the outside world until a
staff person remembered he had recently signed up for a VoIP service. He and other staff set out in a military Humvee to find an Office Depot, where
they requisitioned VoIP phones. They got 8 VoIP lines up and running from the mayor's emergency headquarters. When President Bush called Mayor Nagin on
August 31 from Air Force One, they spoke on teh VoIP line. The city was making use of the capability of VoIP phones to be used anywhere with a
high-speed Internet connection. |
