Talk about a cool gig »
That's cool as in icy, freezing, way too cold to be outside. James Brierton, star iReporter and first-ever iReport summer intern, spent New Years Eve working the roving iReport kiosk in New York’s Times Square. That's James in the photo with Anderson Cooper and CNN producer Aspen Steib. (How cold was it? Accuweather says 18 degrees Fahrenheit. James put it like this on his Facebook page: "I had no feeling in three fingers and my face.") The iReport kiosk James was tending is a computer with a webcam and some software that uploads videos straight to iReport. We use it to collect first-person commentary from people in the middle of a news event; in this case, folks in the middle of a giant freezing street party. Here’re some of the videos James helped capture. Later this week we’re sending an iReport kiosk to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. If you’re going, stop by and record an iReport. (By the way - if you're a storyteller, an iReporter and a student who'd like to be the next iReport summer intern, stay tuned for details here on the iReport blog. Meantime, keep sending those iReports.)
