You can now post stories to San Diego Indymedia using a telephone. This might come in handy if your access to the internet is spotty, if you are at an event and want to report the information fast or while you remember it, or if you just can't face spending more time in front of the computer.
Here's how to telepost: 1 - Call the San Diego Indymedia Hotline: *67.619.tHreeSeVeNEiGhT.OHnInEFouRSiX 2 - Your call will be answered by our dedicated Indybot - your cue to start is the word "Cool" (followed by a beep) 3 - Speak loud and clear. Give the title of your story first, then the author (feel free to make something up!), and then your story. You have a total of 2 minutes after the beep sounds before the Indybot hangs up on you. 4 - The Indybot will forward the story to a San Diego Indymedia volunteer. It should appear on the website as an audio file with a short summary within 12-24 hours (subject to the same procedures for hiding offensive material as for written posts). For stories that are candidates for features, we might include a partial or full transcript. During important events, the delay might be considerably shortened. We expect to automate many aspects of this process with our upcoming software upgrade later this year. 5 - Please contact us by leaving a message on the Hotline or at imc dAsh sd aT lists d0T indymedia d0T org if you have any questions.
