NYT: SMS as warning system for future
disasters
NYT: SMS as warning system for future
disasters
01/01/2005 12:50 PMXeni Jardin:
Another really solid piece from
New York Times reporter John
Schwartz about technology's role in the tsunami disaster. Here,
questions about a text-message emergency warning system, and an
interview with "Sanjaya," aka "Morquendi," whose SMSes from Sri Lanka
were linked and excerpted here on BoingBoing earlier this week (
Link):
When the tsunami hit Sri Lanka, Sanjaya Senanayake found he could not
make calls on his cellphone or regular land line at first - but he
could send and receive text messages from his cellphone. Mr.
Senanayake, a 23-year-old television producer, has spent the last few
days reporting on the disaster, frantically searching for friends and
posting his experiences to the networked world through a [re
dacted] (desimediabitch.blogspot.com) - often via text
messages relayed by a friend in Mumbai, India, formerly known as
Bombay. "It's a very easy, instant way to get the message across," he
said in a cellphone interview.
Experts say that thousands of deaths might have been avoided if
warning systems had been in place to alert the people around the rim
of the Indian Ocean of the tsunami. No such system exists there now,
although the United States has such a system in place for countries of
the Pacific basin. Those who design and use the wireless technology
known as Short Message Service, currently used for chatter and
advertisements, say it could be used to jumpstart governments' warning
networks.
"This tragedy is going to put this more to the forefront," said Greg
Wilfahrt, cofounder of SMS.ac, a company that sells text message
services in more than 170 countries. The technology, though used most
avidly in the United States by teenagers, is wildly popular worldwide
and has accompanied the international boom in cellphone use. Even in
parts of the developing world, cellphones are everywhere: almost half
of the Malaysian population uses them, according to a survey released
this month.
"The way they use the cellphones over there, it makes us look like
amateurs," said Steve O'Rourke, a director of the Asia Pacific
Research Group, which has studied cellphone use. Cellphone use has not
spread quite as widely in many of those nations as it has in the
developed world, of course. But getting cellphones to people living in
remote, impoverished areas has been a major focus of economic
development efforts. Even a few phones might do the trick in the face
of an impending disaster, Mr. Senanayake said. The message need only
reach "one person in every locality who has a phone," he said, and
that person can spread the word.

better than Red Hat's. That prompted long time reader Tim Houghton to
opine that "...Linux is in trouble if Novell is considered a marketing
