Photoblog Revolution
An anonymous reader writes "How about doing a story based on photoblogs? They're quickly becoming the next cool thing in the blog world. A photo a day - a visual diary. It would just be interesting, especially since you're interested in blogs and art. The links included are some of the more popular ones from database photoblogs.org."
Photoblogging, cell-phone blogging, "moblogging." Any word you call it, it's already been covered on Slashdot:

www.andrewhodel.com is my site, I guess it has been a "photoblog" for the last 2 years, ha
Ok, why does everyone always have to do the same thing? Why are these "the next big thing?" The next big what?
Seriously though, it is like everyone is just waiting for someone else to tell them what to do in life. Hey buddy you should start a "photoblog," because everyone else is.
By the way, the term "blog" is so irritating. Is anyone else annoyed when they hear this term used? When I hear it I cringe just like when I used to hear "the information super-highway."
I know that most of us would rather host our own websites, but for the majority out there, they use Blogger or some other free site. The only problem I've found with them is that you can't upload pictures, which is where the whole photo-blog idea fits in. I say, use TinyPic just like tinyURL.com for whenever I need to add a photo to a blog entry. (like this one from a camera phone). Basically, you can upload a normal file-sized picture, and they'll host it.
If you blog it...
People just like pictures
But the novelty soon wears off. When was the last time you jumped at the chance to see someone's holiday photos?
You must be talking about this device.

There is only one way to photoblog these days, and that way is flickr.com.
Flickr is sooo far ahead of any other photo/mobile blog out there, that it is just not funny.
Try it, you'll love it.
