Abstract |
On September 8, 2011 the Great San Diego/Southwest Blackout occurred. Approximately 5 million people were affected by this blackout. This paper explores the availability of social media following such a crisis event. Contrary to expectations, the cell phone system did not have the expected availability and as a result, users had a difficult time using social media to status/contact family and friends. This paper presents a survey exploring the use and availability of social media during the Great San Diego/Southwest Blackout event. © 2012 ISCRAM. |
