What kind of equipments do I need?
Access to a computer and internet is all that you need to be a reporter. Even if you want to 'file' a news story with a picture or video, most of the mobile phones are capable of taking photos and videos.
What kind of news to be reported?
Anything 'interesting' that is happening at your college/university. Remember, you already have your personal space at the 'blog' section. This is about news worthy stuff i.e, news that are of interesting or beneficial to fellow students/members.

What will I gain?

Is it a paid job?
No, not at the moment. We are at the start-up stage. We all have to work hard to transform the site into a success story. There will be partnership positions available to early joiners once the site is commercially viable. Opportunities are as high as the sky.
