The growth of people-powered news and breaking news internet websites

mobile phone technology

While mobile phones have been successful in delivering news and images, for example the Tsunami in Thailand, the mobile phone network is often unable to cope with the volume of traffic during such an event.

breaking news

The speed at which breaking news hits the internet can’t be beat as it only takes a few minutes for a user/reporter to submit news in 3 easy steps:-

• northwest
• Scotland
• Welsh
• south west
• the midlands of England

This contrasts with 24-hour news on television, where the viewer has to watch news that may not be relevant to him while waiting for the news that interests him. If they tune in to the same 24-hour news channel 30 minutes later, they may notice that some of the news is in a kind of loop and they have to watch the same story again, even though it didn’t interest them the first time. around.
