Citizen journalism within news websites.

BBC has the Have your Say section –> you send pictures and videos to them and they filter it.

Daily Mail has comment sections for almost every article unless it is an ongoing trial. They also sometimes link to youtube videos made by ‘normal’ people when something is happening around the world. Eg, tornadoes in America 2011.

The Guardian–> they have links to twitter/fb but everyone else does as well. Can’t find too much there dedicated to citizen journalism. Not many comment sections but lots of links to blogs.

Al Jazeera–> no comment section but they do include a live twitter discussion in a few articles! And a lot of links to blogs by professional journalists.

Loyal myspace costumers quickly changed to Facebook when a major layout change made the website more complex (late 2010). Will this happen to Facebook? Already a few facebookers have threatened to move to Google plus. However this week Facebook Brazil has become the most visited website in the country, with 36.1 million users recorded this December.

Full story here.

Facebook has currently 800 million users world-wide.
