NBC News hopes to take advantage of smartphone-wielding eyewitnesses to news events by streaming video from their handheld devices straight into NBC's news room. The news organization announced Monday it had acquired Stringwire, a new online service currently in private beta. Stringwire lets you take multiple live smartphone video feeds and turn them into an online news broadcast. The person controlling the webpage can switch among camera views and invite others to stream video as well.
