NowPublic … more grassroots / citizen journalism

Technology has broken the corporate news monopoly. Digital cameras, camera phones, blogs, and RSS put the tools of the news trade into the hands of the public, and now real news comes from real people everywhere. Now you can demand coverage of the stories you care about—all you need is nowPublic.

And with that, NowPublic introduces itself to the world. NowPublic is a grassroots world news coverage service where anyone can have a voice. You can also nominate news items for extra coverage.

    Hi,

    We’ve quietly been working on the next release of NowPublic and it is now – finally - in testing. We still have a few seats left in our beta group so if you’re interested in getting an advanced viewing before we launch please let me know.

    In the coming weeks I’ll post additional details here but please feel free to contact me in the meantime. My email address is calder(at)nowpublic(dot)com.

    Best,

    Calder Lorenz,
    Director, Contributor Relations, NowPublic.com
