Sell your photo to the press

With so many of the public armed with cameraphones, real people could be taking pictures that the press simply aren't there to catch.

Tomorrow sees the official launch of Scoopt, the first picture agency set up specifically and exclusively to help citizen reporters around the world sell the pics they take on their cameraphones.

First, you have to register. Then, you can send photos directly from your mobile phone via MMS or via mobile email. If you catch a scoop, Scoopt can make sure that the right people see your picture quickly. They will also ensure that you get a fair price for it. Each time Scoopt makes a sale, they split the money with you 50/50.
