Citizen journalism seems all the rage these days, with normal people breaking news to the world with their mobile phones and portable computers. News sites like GroundReport
and CNN’s iReport are offering users outlets for their eyewitness stories, and with emerging mobile broadcasting products like Twitter and Qik, we’re only going to see the trend continue to grow.
In keeping with the trend, MySpace has partnered with NBC News and MSNBC.com to launch its “Decision ‘08 Convention” contest, which will offer two MySpace users the chance to attend and report from either the Republic or Democratic national convention.
