Reuters is one the most popular news services in the world, their news being published on many sites including Yahoo.

Today, the two companies, Yahoo and Reuters, announced a new partnership that will allow users to become news editors by sending them photos and news from all around the world.

"Reuters news reaches over one billion people around the world each day. Join our award-winning photographers to share the events that matter to you," Reuters said.

How does the service work? When you'll decide to sent Reuters or Yahoo some news or photos, you have to choose between an email address and a website available via Yahoo's official webpage.
After the companies will receive your content, they will publish and share it with the entire world and users of the service.

"Whatever the content, a news picture can lose its value in a short space of time. News events move quickly, and the shot of a mini tornado you took last week may have been destined for the front page when you took it, but of no interest to a newspaper or a website a week later. There are exceptions if the event is of huge significance and rarity. For example, a photo of a tsunami wave could still be of great interest days after it struck," Reuters said.

"We want to see it! Submit news video for possible inclusion on Yahoo! News. We're interested in video created by citizen journalists - that means you," Yahoo said.

"We are looking at the possibility of creating photo wires and archives to allow people to be compensated for their work and for the images they are able to capture," Chris Ahearn, president of Reuters Media, sustained.
