The local news website Fwix is working on a dedicated iPhone application. The idea is to recruit regular iPhone-ownin’ citizens as reporters and contributors.
Users will be able to take photos and videos, as well as write text content, and post it all to Fwix website within seconds.
Of course, the iPhone app will also enable users to follow the latest news from their city, and access all of the Fwix content while on-the-go. And in case you’re wondering, at the moment Fwix collects links to local news articles from various newspapers and blogs in 85 cities. Adding the iPhone reporting to the mix could significantly increase the usage and traffic…
UPDATE: Fwix is in the AppStore!

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
