Citizen Journalism and www.newsotronic.com

www.newsotronic.com is designed to be one of the premier resources for local news on the web.  We have tried to make the site as open as possible and it is really up to the community to decide what goes up on the site.  At this point we don’t have editors and we’re hoping they won’t be necessary as this would put a filter on the news which is not in the spirit of what this site is about.

For the professional journalists, citizen journalists and activists in the community, www.newsotronic.com is provides an outstanding set of tools to enable you to report on news in your community as effectively as possible.  Our first set of tools provides basic authoring/editing/commenting capabilities as well as traffic reporting to measure the effectiveness of your content.  In the planning and implementation stages are tools to enable posting content from mobile devices and photo uploading.  We’re constantly adding new features and when possible we will provide a schedule for the availability of these new tools as we continue to progress.
