Police departments in New York have taken a new stance with technology at the forefront. 911 calls or emergency calls, will accept text messages, photographs taken on cell phones or videos from cell phones.
The procedure would be as follows:
1. When someone calls in, the dispatcher will take the details of the crime and assign a special code to the report if there are pertinent photos or videos taken by the caller
2. A detective will call the person with instructions on how/where to send the information
This highly increases the chances of criminals being caught in the act since the chances of being caught on civilians' cell phone videos or photos are much greater. The beauty of this is that these new rules lean on the everyday patterns of New Yorkers (text messaging and videos).

Looking forward to when Apple and Blackberry open-up their applications for acceptance of Surveillance software. It's sad to two biggest tools still let Windows based appliances dominate the landscape.
