A number of things came together when the iPhone was released that helped it become a disruptive force for news and journalism: Twitter was one of them, but so was the fact that the device had a half-decent camera that could do stills and video — and the app economy that Apple created made it easy for services and developers to create specific apps for different functions, such as Instagram for sharing photos. But more than anything, the iPhone was the first smartphone that actually felt like a mobile computer rather than a phone, and that made it easier to think of it as a device you could use not just for consuming the news, but for making it.
