    Climate Camp is over, but the new features we have introduced will stick around. With people using their phones more and more to access the internet, we have spent a bit of time to make a version of Imc London that is mobile friendly, check it out at http://mob.london.indymedia.org. We also introduced a new form of posting: the tumble. So why don't you snap a photo of RTF and upload it directly from your phone to the Tumblewire, so everyone can see what a good time people are having? These features are brand new, so if something doesn"t work or you find any bugs, let us know!
