New Hampshire, USA (Nashua Telegraph): Thanks to a newly adopted Internet-based technology, people who are deaf or hard of hearing can communicate with City Hall to get a pothole filled, learn about zoning requirements, or ask a question of the Nashua Public Library’s reference desk.
The new technology, called Textnet, is a program for Windows-based PCs. A deaf person makes a toll-free call and Internet technology turns the phone call into an instant message that pops up on a City Hall computer. The caller uses either a computer or the keyboard on a text telephone to communicate.
