Hi Guys,
I noticed many of you have blogs and many upload them directly from your cell.

I would like to get a blog going but need to know which one would be easiest to update from a camera equipped phone with wifi like a n93.

I am looking ot upload short video clips via wifi, some pics and a bit of text.

Any input would be great. I noticed Vox works well and there is a mobile app to publish photos but wandering if any other blog/program is better.
Thanks,
Paul
 
There are quite a few good ways to do it. If you are looking to do a traditional blog format (post by post), then a good place to start would be blogger. You can email a picture as an attachment, the Subject line becomes the Post heading, and any text in the email becomes the body. When you setup your blog, there's an option to setup the personalized email you send to, and have it autopost (so it'd be like [email protected]).

However, this doesn't work for videos... for that, you might look into Vox, since there is now software for direct posting from the n93 (and other s60's) to Vox of video's and pictures.

For just straight blogging, I use wordpress... they have a great mobile site for checking stats and posting to your blog (m.wordpress.com)

Make sure you put the link in your sig, for others to check out!

on your N93, Lifeblog should work great, and it integrates tightly with TypePad, which is what I use. I'm not sure if it does videos, though.

I would setup the blog, don't tell anyone the URL yet, and install Vox, Lifeblog, and any other blogging apps on your phone you want to try out. Create a post and upload it with each app and see which one turns out the way you wanted it to.
 
No doubt VOX!

Blue, can the uploads be done over wifi?

I am waiting to get a camera s60 phone (n95 or n93) If i have a pic or video that I drop from k790a to my e61, can I upload it from my e61?

I just want to get familiar with it for later. Are there any size limitations to the pictures of vides that get uploaded?

Thanks,
Paul
 
Ofcoruse you can use any connection type available to the phone, including WIFI. I'm not sure about uploading video from other phone, but I have succesfully uploaded video and pic made by my N93.
 
I use blogger so I have to test out programs that tie into it. I see you have a K790 listed as one of your phones. I had a K800 and it was the best since blogger was built in. But for a s60 phone you can also try pico blogger in addition to VOX, lifeblog and mobile wordpress. I think you should choose the blog application you like first and then find mobile solution to go with it.
 
I don't remember if you have to install the extension separately, but Wordpress does the same thing, giving you a special email address to send pictures to to have them posted to your blog.
 
Is there a size limit when uploading videos to the blog?

Can you only upload a video that you just shot? Or does it allow you to select it from the file system?
