CBS Eyemobile goes mobile with new iPhone app
Citizen journalism is moving to the iPhone. CBS has announced that its new CBSeyemobile.com site now has a free iPhone app that is available from the iTunes App store for users who want to submit photo and video content.
Eyemobile for iPhone will allow users to upload content from their iPhones as well as to view what others are uploading while on-the-go.
Other TV networks already have citizen journalism sites. CNN has iReport and Fox News is pushing the similarly named UReport. Even the Associated Press has an iPhone app.
Another service, IAMNEWS, calls itself “an open newsroom powered by you” and aims to allow independent journalists to collaborate online. The site is currently by invitation only.
