Demotix allows individuals with a story to tell to share their pictures and articles with the world.
Remember all those pictures of the Tsunami, of the monks in Burma, of London bombings? They were all taken by people who just happened to be there at the time and managed to snap a picture with their mobile phone or a camera. Ever increasingly, this is how the news will be made. Demotix (www.demotix.com ) is an exciting new website that allows individuals with a story to tell to share their pictures and articles with the rest of the world. Demotix – the “Citizen Wire” – empowers ordinary citizens to post news stories and pictures and, through their partnership with media organizations, makes it possible for the mainstream media to pick them up and publish them.
