Spot.us – changes coming soon
“Spot Us” is a nonprofit that allows an individual or group to take control of news in their community by sharing the cost (crowdfunding) to commission freelance journalists to write important, or uncovered news stories.
Spot.Us was founded by David Cohn and is made possible by the Knight News Challenge grant. The project is informed by many people including you!!!!
Spot Us is currently in pre-alpha mode, but are using a community wiki to organize proofs of concept. Help journalism and keep democracy strong.
Spot.Us officially has my support in any aspect of their development. Good luck Dave!
Thanks Ryan.
Same to you -- if you ever think there is something i can do to help - just let me know.
