Joel Leyden Blogging from a mobile phone - Wow!

The last two posts were blogged from my mobile phone.

I am leaving them exactly as is for historical purposes.
The first is one of my cats. I knew the photo was awful, didn't even try to adjust the photo - for I knew that this was not going to work. But it did!!!

The second post was from in front of my computer. The post did not take more than two minutes. That is my 7-year-old daughter Amanda making like Israel model Galit Gutman.

Normally, if I want any content uploaded from my mobile phone camera, I need to get myself back to my office, create a wired hookup from my phone to the PC. Upload. Convert the image to a JPEG or GIF for the Net. Use my photo editors to enhance the image. Then log onto Blogger, enter password and all. Arrange layout and ...................

With my phone this total operation is reduced to 1. taking the photo, 2. sending it to Blogger.
This is amazing technology. Technology that can certainly save lives as one can post from a car or air crash in real time. Get assistance when lost ......

And being in the news biz - I am just smiling what can be done here.................
