Another Email Fail: Obama and the White House

by Sabrina Parsons on January 28, 2009

As reported yesterday in the New York Times, The White House experienced more than 6 hours of email outage yesterday. I wonder who is getting fired for this email faux pas? You have to wonder what kind of technology is in place in the White House that they not only had their email service go down — but it took them that long to get it back up. You would think the White House should have a redundant system to make sure there are no outages. I bet they aren’t on the cloud! ;)
