@ Reuters Mobile Journalism Roundtable: Rolling Out The MoJo, Planning For HD Mobiles
By James Quintana Pearce - Tue 27 Nov 2007 06:17 AM PST
A Reuters (NSDQ: RTRSY) reporter will this week embark on an experiment to report the arrival of Tesco in the US with little more than a Nokia (NYSE: NOK) N95 mobile phone. The news agency has been using the “mobile journalism toolkit”, developed through close partnership with Nokia, for a couple of months now (see October’s post), but mostly to have TV reporters shoot video for the web - now a text reporter will file to the wire from LA and Las Vegas using the handset and a Bluetooth keyboard. This sort of set-up isn’t going to replace all journalism, it’s just another way to collect the news. PaidContent.co.uk has further details, including video.
