Vancouver gives rise to new citizen journalism project
Via Reportr.net
The citizen journalism beat has a new kid on the block in the shape of VancouverIAM.
As you might have guessed from the name, it is a citmedia site about Vancouver, based in Vancouver. The site describes itself as:
The destination for people who want to know what’s going on in Vancouver. It gives you the tools and support to become a video journalist, internet TV and film producer and an active commentator on local politics and everyday issues about life in Vancouver.
