Alive in Mexico: Getting Noticed by InfoWorld

InfoWorld: Video blogger dodging bullets, teargas in Oaxaca, Mexico

"What's more ballsy than picking up your video camera and jetting off to Baghdad, Iraq to report on conditions for ordinary civilians caught in the midst of a civil war? How about picking up your video camera and jetting off to Oaxaca, Mexico, to report on the conditions of ordinary civilians caught in the midst of civil unrest and a government crackdown?

That's what Brian Conley, creator of the powerful Alive in Baghdad video blog has done with his latest project, Alive in Mexico...

...Conley and his collaborative projects (Alive in Baghdad has been run mostly by native Iraqis, armed with video cameras in recent months) is a sterling example of the potential and power of the Internet and portable, easy to use video and audio equipment to revolutionize the way news is gathered and consumed...

...Conley has some powerful people in his corner, including VON founder Jeff Pulver. Donations and sales of raw footage have allowed him to pay meager salaries to his staff in Baghdad and get the ball rolling in Oaxaca. For now, he says he's got enough video in the bag for six or so more posts to Alive in Mexico, providing he can keep one step ahead of the PFP."

Nice to see the work of Brian Conley getting the attention of InfoWorld.

2007 should be a breakthrough year for the growth of Citizen Journalism.
