For the past couple of days, I’ve been surfing the web for tutorials on mobile blogging. I’ll be away for a week and… well, okay I’m a compulsive blogger and I don’t know if I won’t go on withdrawal if I can’t blog for that long. There will probably be internet access during the first leg of the trip but not during the last three or four days. So, I want to be able to post via my cell phone. Take some photos like the ones you see below and be able to post them directly on this blog. Of course, what you see below I had to send from my cell phone to my computer via bluetooth. But I’m not planning on bringing a laptop to the trip, so you know…

Of course, I’ll be posting the REAL photos when we come back, the ones taken with a REAL CAM. But real-time blogging is so much fun that I’m even willing to buy a new cell phone just to be able to do it. I know, I know, I’m probably just trying to find a good excuse to get myself a new cell phone. I’ve been postponing it, actually. I almost bought an iPhone twice during the past two weeks, balked after seeing the Xperia… I’ll be out the whole day tomorrow for some last-minute shopping before we leave and who knows what I’ll see and ask for a demo of.

Anyway, I did find some moblogging tutorials, most of which I really couldn’t understand. I can do cron jobs but that’s about my limit. I know that most of the readers of this blog aren’t exactly the geeky types but if you’ve come across anything that I might be able to use, I’d appreciate it if you could share the links.
