Tech Turns Users into Mobile News Makers
http://www.wirelessnewsfactor.com/perl/story/21988.html
A young college student in Singapore is being berated by the teacher
for
unacceptable work. In a fit of rage, the teacher tears up the hapless
student's paper in front of the whole class. It's something that
normally would have gone unnoticed outside the classroom. But since
early July, it has become the talk of Singapore, sparking questions and
concerns over the state of student-teacher relations in the country's
education system.
But the teacher's sudden infamy wasn't the result of complaints from
the
shamed student, or your usual news account. Rather, the fuss came about
because a tech-savvy fellow classmate clandestinely captured photos of
the questionable chastisement -- and instantly published them on the
Web
using just his cell phone.
Welcome to the latest trend on the Net -- "moblogs."
