Broadcast and print students from the MA in International Journalism at City University, London are today putting their online journalism skills to work as protests and other events related to the G20 Summit get underway around the capital.

The students, led by broadcast student Alex Wood, will be using Qik, Twitpic, blogging, as well as of course Twitter to cover events as they actually happen. They have selected a special Twitter hashtag, #g20ct, to link their ‘tweets’ together.

These various media are being aggregated on a web page also entirely put together by these students: http://tinyurl.com/g20live.

Extended video footage and photography from the day is also being collected and could be available as early as tomorrow.
