Submitted by Sara Majka on Fri, 05/29/2009 - 12:47.
We've put up two new giraffe profiles--you can click on their names to reach the full profile. Erik Sundelof (pictured here) is the founder of inthefieldONLINE.net. It's a site that gives people tools to share content from their cell phones to the web--with it, he's trying to remove an economic barrier to citizen reporting, opening it up to more parts of the world. Also with a global perspective, Jim Spencer is the founder of Newsy.com, a site that aggregates short news videos---trying to give people a filter and diverse, global viewpoints.
