VozMob

Multimedia stories posted from your mobile phones.

We're developing a system based on customizing drupal and create multimedia stories directly into the site generated from lowend phones as long as they support MMS.

It is also 2-way.  Information can be sent from the site out back to phones.  People can rate and comment on the stories directly from their phones.

A physical paper newsletter was created from stories posted via VozMob.  It philosophically about helping people retake control of their own communities by voicing their issues.

We are looking forward to presenting vozmob at N2Y4 in a few days.We hope to enlist support for our project, especially from MMS-savvy hackers and mobile carriers. In a nutshell, we have been working with immigrants in Los Angeles to build an open-source platform for them to tell stories directly from their cell phones. They take pictures or videos, record sound clips, add a few words, and send that to the vozmob site via MMS.
