Camera Phones Are Bringing People Together, Says Textamerica
People familiar with this column don't need convincing, but you can't let positive articles pass by without notice, when so much of the press continues to report on the evils of camera phones usage (yes, sigh, in locker rooms). Photoblogs updated with camera enabled phones are such a wonderful and easy way to share personal events with family and friends living apart.
"Whether you are on vacation, getting married or having a baby, your friends and family can stay up to date with you just by checking out your moblog online," said textamerica Founder Chris Hoar. "You just need to snap the pictures with your camera phone, then send them to your account. No more uploading, resizing or trips to the local 1-hour photo.
-- On Kekoa Charles - San Diego residents Jade and Nicole post photos of their baby online for their parents in Hawaii
-- South Carolina State Senator Glenn Reese on his moblog gives an inside look at his life, from the early days up to the present day, where you see the Senator in action both in his community and in Columbia.
-- And nice, a wish list just getting started and growing, to send care packages to American soldiers in Irak.
