Confucius say "what is point of posting cryptic message with zero content?"

Laurin posted his views years ago on another forum. "Small cellphone cams will reach the quality of DSLRs and everybody will become an editorial or news photo/videographer if he happens to be at the right place. Crowd-sourcing will get its true meaning then." (my wording).
In fact he was right since during the most recent Arab spring events and also the London riots, video coverage with the most impact and relevance was done by anonymous people in the crowd with cellphones. Everybody has one so you are less likely to be targeted out while filming.
