Photo blogging, the newest trend online, just became easier, thanks to the Sony Ericsson K800i, a Cyber-shot phone with a 3.2-megapixel camera and integrated blogger application.
Photo blogging allows you to share your latest photos with your friends, family and the world. You can use photo blogging to keep a daily record of your life in photographic format, document the growth of your kids, or simply to get public feedback on your latest work of art. The possibilities are endless.
While various Java applications have been available to allow camera phone shots to be uploaded directly to a blog, the K800i is the first to come with a built-in blogging capability. All the user has to do is select a picture and then pick the option for sending via 'blog' rather than MMS (Multimedia messaging) or email. By default this will link the user directly to Goggle’s blogger service.
Users of the new K800i phone who don't already have a blog can set one up over the phone.The first time the user selects 'blog', Goggle’s servers automatically create a unique address on its blogspot for that particular handset/SIM card combination. They'll be able to take photos with the camera and then easily add them to their blogs. Better still it will be entirely feasible for the user to customize his or her blogspot address from the handset – no need to access a PC.
Blogger is an online tool that lets people create and manage blogs for free.Think of a blog (also known as a Web Log) as either an online diary or a never-ending newspaper column, full of links to various online material. They may hold breaking news, wry commentary, or everyday observations, plus comments from other readers. While politics and technology inspire many bloggers, web journals connect almost any group of like-minded people, from gadget enthusiasts, to Harry Potter devotees, to time-starved moms. The highlight of boggling is the picture-filled blog to keep family and friends up to date on big events, like a wedding or a new baby. The K800i takes full adavantage of this feature. Moreover, companies use blogs to communicate with customers. It’s really up to you what you make out of you blog.
The K800i offers full support for a complete digital imaging lifestyle. Printing is possible without the need for a PC thanks to PictBridge™, a feature that transfers pictures directly to a printer by using a USB cable. Storing and managing image files on your PC are made easy with the supplied Adobe software, and the phones are among the first to feature fully integrated picture blogging. Blogging is growing exponentially as a way of sharing personal experiences with words and images, and Picture Blogging in the K800i allows users to create and update personal blogs directly from the phone in just a few clicks.
Business users will find the K800i a valuable work tool while out of the office and the sleek Velvet Black casing fits neatly with their professional image.
