One of my goals in the new year has been to get back to my shutterbug self and take and share more photos. To that end, I have decided to try to start moblogging a bit. The idea is that I see something, I snap a shot of it with the camera on my phone, and I can upload it to Flickr right then and there.
Since I use Nokia phones I have a few options. There's an article I read about some of these options but I apparently neglected to bookmark it. Oops. But I do know the two major options. The first is called ShoZu. It's a site dedicated to this sort of thing with a client for several phones. It's also a middle man, meaning the client uploads photos to ShoZu's server and then they upload to Flickr or any number of other sites. I must admit I don't like this, but the other option is not an option for me.
Nokia's N series phones have the ability to share photos online, and Nokia and Flickr have teamed up to add a configuration for those phones to upload to Flickr. Check that out here. This looks like the clear winner of the two with much better options. For example, ShoZu can tag but cannot put things into sets. But I do not carry an N series phone today, so this isn't going to be it for me unless / until I switch.
So that's the run down. In the mean time, I'll hopefully be uploading more photos as time goes on.
