It’s not the future. It’s now.
• A team of reporters at FM News 101.1 covered Chicago live for a year, o:en with just an iPhone and -‐-‐ some@mes -‐-‐ a laptop:
• All sound recorded with just an iPhone: hBp://soundcloud.com/meyerson/final-‐farewell-‐to-‐a-‐chicago
• Live broadcasts, too – plugging the iPhone into a mult box.

Google Voice: A great tool.
![Page 16: Mobile journalism (updated, 2014)](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042700/559442bf1a28ab06308b4647/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Things you can do with Google Voice • Record incoming phone calls. (Note: Before recording, you must get your subject's
permission: "May I record this for possible use on the air and on the Internet?”) • Press 4 to record, and 4 to stop. • When done, return to Google.com/voice, where you can download the file for
edi@ng or email a link to the file (instead of the whole file as an annoying aBachment).

Things you can do with Google Voice
• You can download Google Voice files and
use them as the substrate for a slideshow
or other visual presenta@on.
• Or you can upload them (for free!) to
SoundCloud.com, and place the audio file in
your mul@media presenta@ons, or share it
through social media (TwiBer, Facebook).

What do you need to be a mobile journalist?
(Beyond, of course, the essen@al skills of knowing how to write, how speak, how to spot a good image, how to tell a story, how to be fair, and all the rest ... ?)
