HYPERLOCAL NEWS HUB BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS DEPARTMENT OF JOURNALISM

By Lurene Kelley/MicroMemphis editor

MicroMemphis is using a new storytelling tool called Storify.  This free tool  incorporates Tweets, Facebook posts, Flickr images, and YouTube videos posted by the public.  The Storify reporter then takes these posts and edits, arranges, and adds explanations to tell the story of an event.  So post often and look for your images and words in our Storify reports.
