Quickfire
Aim: An application for journalists to use outside the Corporation's infrastructure using text or email to send an editorial piece for approval for use on the corporation's website, breaking news or television ticker.
End Product: A web based application that was device agnositic which accepted both SMS text and email messages and stored them in a database.
Editors could see the messages on the screen and could edit, save and approve pieces for use across the Corporation.
The application was well used during a number of key events through the year and enriched the News feeds with snippets that the journalists might not have been able to have fed back using normal working practices.
