Mobile Blogging



Morning..




This morning I tried to start a mobile blog. Completely experimental. And it turns out that it was not so difficult. Especially when you have already set your email preferences in your mobile devices.




So, in general, i think these are the steps to start a mobile blog:



  1. Make sure your email preferences in your mobile devices are already setup well. The how-tos on doing these stuffs are out of the topic. Sorry.. :p


  2. Create new email with your blog title as subject and your blog post as message's body.


  3. Send it to go@blogger.com.


  4. Check your inbox, and find email from go@blogger.com which includes your moblog token.


  5. Go to http://go.blogger.com to enter your moblog token and claim your moblog. That is, associate you existing blogger account with your mobile post; or create new account. -- Issues: Can't associate the moblog with beta blogger account yet!! :((


  6. You'll be given a blogger url address, but you can modify it in your blog settings. Other settings could also be setup like usual.


  7. Enjoy..




PS: Don't forget to visit my mobile blog.. ;)

ngapain juga musti moblog??
alamatnya kan jadi beda lagih..
bukannya masih bisa posting via e-mail untuk ke blog biasa??
gw biasanya pake e-mail kok klo lagi males..
tapiii.. klo kirim via e-mail ga langsung publish.. masih draft gituh.. tapi sama aja lah.. hehe..

as far as i understand, we CAN merge the mobile post with our current blog. and it goes 'live' directly, not as draft.

but like i said earlier. they still dont support beta account to do the merge.

hiks.. hiks.. :((

one thing i hate using cell phone is the keypad. i don't like writing on cell phone. that's why i always write text in short. but i love the idea blogging via cell phone.

well...seems I must try it. but, sometimes moblog is not comfort enough for me, since I can't type quickly in my gadget..:(
