Turkey Buzzard At Work

We had a visitor at work today - a very large Turkey Buzzard.  So, I went outside and took a picture with my mobile phone camera and uploaded it directly to the blog.  Very cool technology.

FLIX Video from my Verizon Mobile Phone

Video test of the Postie plugin.  It looks like it uploads the video but doesn’t put the thumbnail there.  Of course, not sure how that would happen anyways.  I’ll look into other ways of doing this (including emailing the camera videos to YouTube or Facebook mobile).

Live From The Field - Huh?

OK… what’s going on here?

Well, I’ve been playing with the Postie plugin from Economy Size Geek, and it’s really cool. It allows me to take a picture on my cell phone and send it to my blog via a text message (although in this case, it’s really a pix message from Verizon). Since I upgraded my phone plan to include unlimited txt and pix messages (Marissa wanted to have texting on her cell phone), I figured it would be cool to be able to take a picture on my mobile phone and have it post automatically to the blog.

All of the picture posts below with the “Live From The Field” title are my tests.  I decided to leave them because of the pictures, although you may not get the “Johnnie the Steak” reference unless you’re from Brix (and maybe even not then).

Ain’t technology wonderful? And, if you are having some issues with getting it to work, do a little search in the comments on the page linked above. I found out how to strip out the Verizon signature message by going through the posts.

Good Luck!
