Want to show off your photos of an event? Got audio or video that people just have to see? This is the place to put it. We want to hear your story. Use any format you want, from journalistic, to academic, to personal account.

WHAT TO PUBLISH: Please use this form to contribute new stories and ideas. We think comments belong with the story being discussed. So to have your say in response to a story on the site, please use the "add your comments" link at the bottom of each story. Instead of reposting corporate media articles to the site, try posting your own critique or summary, short quotes, and links.

LEGALESE: Unless otherwise stated, all content contributed to this site is free for non-commercial reuse, reprint or rebroadcast. If you want to specify different conditions, please do so in the summary, including any © copyright statement. Please read our privacy and disclaimer statements before continuing.

MULTIMEDIA: Please scale your images to a width of no more than 600 pixels. If you need help converting your sounds or video to a digital file, consult our tutorial page. QuickTime should be encoded as fast start, compressed header.

EDITORIAL POLICY: After stories have been published, they can be edited, linked or hidden by the collective running this site. We have a lot of respect for the people publishing on our site, so we generally only use these features to fix obvious mistakes, such as typos in a web address or a duplicate copy of a story. Very rarely, someone abuses our trust by posting a story that is way outside what the website is set up to do, and we may remove it. Read more about our open publishing policy.
