Simple online application that allows publishers and brand owners to capture incoming content from a variety of locations in a variety of image and video formats.
The inbox can accept a variety of formats sent via email as attachments, mobile phone MMS/SMS messages or via ftp upload. The Stream Crowdsourcer can also transcode the various formats on the fly into one universal format for easy integration to your website.
At the core of the product are comprehensive moderation tools allowing you to modify and approve content at a variety of levels. Reuters used the ingest, moderation and transcoding capabilities of the Newsdesk Transcoder to power the Times Square billboard as part of their ‘Everday Smiles’ campaign.
The entire system allowed users to send in photos directly from their phone, the best were selected by moderators and these were converted into an RSS feed which fed the sign directly. Users were given confirmation of their choice by SMS and the images on the sign were captured for use within the online galleries.
