The Google 'Bulletin' App Lets Users Submit Their Own Stories and More

Many consumers get a lot of the content that they read from their social media feed, so the Google 'Bulletin' app is designed to take this into account by enabling a stronger focus on user-submitted data.

The app works by enabling users to submit their own stories using text, photos and video, which puts a focus on the general public to help keep everyone informed of what's going on in their community. This also works to keep the information that everyone reads and consumes tailored to their preferences without having to deal with specialized subscriptions.

The Google 'Bulletin' app is presently being piloted in Nashville and Oakland with plans to expand the availability, depending on how it's received by users.
