"We believe in pushing the envelope with innovative features for
the users of
PixPulse.com and our platform clients," said David Xue, CEO of PixPulse. "Our network of platform members can go beyond content sharing by getting media coverage and earning money for their valuable newsworthy images or a great creative shot. With the help of Citizen Image's syndication engine, the PixPulse Platform is now perfectly suited for news organizations looking to embrace user generated content and citizen journalism in all its forms - text, images, and video. Together with PixPulse we offer these companies a speedy way to implement citizen journalism initiatives with ease and value-added syndication features for their readers."
Through the partnership with Citizen Image (http://www.citizenimage.com/), any PixPulse user can opt-in their content on PixPulse.com via the web or in real time from their mobile phone. Images or video captured as a newsworthy event unfolds can be uploaded immediately which in turn lets Citizen Image make PixPulse user-generated content available to news organizations all over the world in real time.
Citizen Image CEO Feargall Kenny adds, "Because no news organization can plan to cover news events they cannot anticipate, increasingly they are embracing 'citizen journalism' content in all its forms - text, images and video. Enabled by Citizen Image's syndication engine, PixPulse.com is now ready to let PixPulse users take advantage of this important and growing trend and offer their newsworthy and creative content for sale to hundreds of media buyers around the world.
