Anti-Globalism writes "New York City is touting a new weapon in its war on crime: cell phone cameras.
Tipsters in New York City can now send photos and video from computers and Web-enabled cell phones and PDAs to the city's 911 and non-emergency hot lines to report crimes and quality-of-life issues such as potholes, officials announced Tuesday.
While many cities' emergency systems are equipped to accept text messages, this is believed to be the first system that also is able to process photos and video."
