"Flixwagon, the self-broadcasting tool that was recently chosen by MTV to help out with its citizen journalism efforts, is releasing some new upgrades today.  The new features span Flixwagon's mobile and web access points, so you're better able to submit and maintain updates.  Flixwagon's new mobile application is the biggest news for today's updates, giving users more options for sending and receiving multimedia updates.  \nThankfully there are also privacy settings for your mobile account, so you can choose who sees your broadcasts.  What's useful about Flixwagon's particular privacy setting is the ability to set it from your mobile, just before you send out an update, so the privacy settings are in fact available on a case-by-case basis.  \nThe web updates for Flixwagon are pretty run of the mill, but necessary nonetheless.  Twitter integration has been smartly added, so Flixwagon updates can be broadcast through Twitter.  Flixwagon URLs with your username tagged onto the end makes it easier for you to remember the web address when sending the link out to friends. But if you're too lazy to do even that, a new contact import option lets you invite your friends from Outlook, AOL, Yahoo, Gmail and Plaxo.  Looks like something the new Google Contacts Data API can take advantage of.  \nWhile all of these new features make it easier for average users to use the Flixwagon self-broadcasting tool, the mobile application is the most appealing aspect of the company's upgrades, especially as the market leaders like Mogulus push forward with better integrated tools, and the bigger players like Yahoo begin to launch large initiatives in an attempt to take over the space."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
