MoGN is in the Apple App Store!


After nearly two years of brainstorming, planning, organizing and revising, the Mobile Generated News™ App is complete and now in the Apple App Store!

It has been quite a journey.  Shortly after the iPad came out, Gill Davis of MGN Online and I met to talk about the future of News.  We both came to the same conclusion.  The next generation of news consumers were not reading Newspapers, not watching as much TV News as we might think they should be, and basically learning about the world through social media.  We were both concerned that the next generation, our daughters and sons, were not getting enough reputable information and therefore would be making intelligent life decisions without being well informed.

After several meetings, our plan began to take shape.  We would create a forum for the next generation to contribute breaking news and hyper-local news stories to new media AND mainstream media.

Above all, our project had to be a credible source.  The material needed to confirmed, fact-checked, and otherwise vetted so that all of those consuming the information could depend on our News product as a solid source of information.

You can download the MoGN App by searching “Mobile Generated News” in the Apple App Store or by clicking this link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mobile-generated-news/id682265217?ls=1&mt=#
