Cell Journalist:

The storm waters have finally started to recede in Nashville and things are starting to get back to normal.  Over the past week we have taken a hard look at some of the data from our Nashville stations.  We wanted to look at how much content was coming in per HOUR and exactly HOW that content was coming in.  One big advantage with Cell Journalist is that content can be submitted from mobile phones or email.  This makes it very easy for people to submit their pictures and videos.  On average over 50% of the content is submitted via cell phones or directly through email.

One of our partners in Nashville topped out at almost 1,000 images/videos in one hour!  There are definitely spikes that relate to on-air call to actions and the display of user photos/videos from around the area.   A very powerful cycle is created when content is shown on air.  It motivates the audience to keep on submitting and provides more valuable content for the stations to use.

The graph below is a snapshot of the content received, from one station, between 7:00 am on Saturday May1st through 11:00 pm on Sunday May2nd.
