Allvoices.com lets Citizen Journalists Share Events in Gaza with the World via Cell phones

Allvoices.com has set up a page called The Events in Gaza, tinyurl.com/97v9go - to which citizen journalists can contribute via their cell phones.

Erik Sundelof of Allvoices says, 'The whole world is turning their heads to events in Gaza. The effects will be long lasting in the region as well as around the world. Ultimately this will cause suffering to a lot of innocent people on both sides in the area around Gaza. I believe it is time for us to open a dialogue about these events and what they mean to us as a global society. '

The ubiquitous availability of web-accessible camera phones has increased the incidents of direct reporting from event eyewitnesses. The recent events in Mumbai and now the Middle East have proven this, and we now know the best resources come from inside the story.
