NowPublic.com launches
NowPublic, the new citizen's media site CyberJournalist.net reported on earlier this week, has launched as expected.
This is a successor site to BlueHereNow.com, a website that allowed the general public send in news-worthy photographs but got overtaken but a lot of spam.
The news is now public thanks to new technology like camera phones, digital cameras, blogging tools, and RSS standards. NowPublic combines the functionality of these emerging tools to let people investigate, produce, and publish news that they care about.
With NowPublic, bloggers and citizen journalists can automatically dispatch reporters and photographers to the site of a news story anywhere in the world. At the same time photographers can safely distribute, manage, license and sell their work through NowPublic's portable, point-of-sale smart media format.
News readers can compare real-time, breaking stories to other coverage on the web and in the media, and because all NowPublic content is accessible and sortable into multiple and specific RSS feeds, reports are circulated back into the blogosphere.
