Since I have acquired my Vodafone 802se mobile phone I realized that I could finally Moblog! This is partially why I even thought about upgrading my Blog publishing platform. Most of the Moblogging apps use the MetaWeb API for image posting (and Blogger did not support that yet). So, after I upgraded to Word Press 1.5 (which does support the Enhanced MetaWeb API), I was confident that I would be able to start really using the power of the Blog capabilities.
After doing some more serious research on Moblogging and visiting Joichi Itos Moblogging FAQ,, I have found three seemingly pretty solid J2mE Moblog solutions. Each that allows you to write/post entries (and images), they are BlogPlanet, Kablog, and MIDlog.
They are all J2ME applications (.jar files) for ones JAVA capable mobile phone. You will have to download them via WAP or to your computer and transfer them to your phone thru either BlueTooth or IrDA.
Of the three applications I mentioned, BlogPlanet is the only one that supports image postings as well. I was NOT, however, able to get the BlogPlanet image capture and posting to work on my phone, even though it supports it all. When you select the Camera option in the app, all I get is a Yellow screen, and when I click on Capture, it crashed. I had to reset/restart the phone by turning it off/on again.
If you are involved in Moblogging I would love to hear your experiences. What OTHER applications and/or services do you know of and use to do your own Moblogging? Any tips and tricks to the novice Moblogger? What are some other good personal MOblog sites?
