Reuters covers use of technology in Seoul protests
2008/06/13 23:49Reuters has an article titled "Korea protests a proving ground for gadgets and geeks" that covers the technology being used by bloggers and other citizens to cover the string of protests in Seoul:
From high-resolution camera phones to instant broadcasting software and water cannon-resistant camcorders, the latest advances in communications were in evidence during the five weeks since the protests began.
There is a related article also from Reuters covering how message boards and citizen journalism are taking a role in the protests. The article also relays how some Koreans feel about "old media":
One of the more popular refrains from those on the Internet is how best to use newspapers.
"Bring a copy of one of the big dailies with you to the rally," one comment read. "You can sit on it to keep your pants clean."
Danny Kim of TechnoKimchi also posted his thoughts on the impact of the Internet on the protests in Korea.
