Mo Blog, No Problems

Posted in Articles at 10:31 pm by jon yang

Most cellphones have a pretty decent camera nowadays and people are taking advantage of it for mobile blogging purposes. I carry my Sidekick II with me at all times but often, I don’t have my digital camera. The Sidekick has a small (endearingly crappy) camera but for my purposes it suffices.

For example, capturing my recent weekend in San Francisco, exploring Golden Gate Park and the The Palace of Fine Arts. It also allowed me to document just how up close and personal I got with the kites controlled by this Chinese man in the nearby park. He had a dozen small kites daisy chained together and could make the contraption dip, float, and come soaring to within inches of your face with just a few controlled flicks of his wrists. Amazing stuff.

The Sidekick also allows me to send all these pictures to my “Hiplog,” which is just blog that T-Mobile sets up for me, already pre-synced to my phone. It’s awesome and I use it to exchange little moments of my days with my other moblogging friends.
