Phonograph

By ⋅ June 23, 2004 ⋅ Post a comment

I’ve (possibly temporarily) changed by photo blogging host from Mobog to Buzznet. I got a new GSM phone, and in New Zealand this also means a new number (because I’ve switched carriers). This in turn buggers up my mobog account, because the phone number is obviously used as a unique ID so that the photos [...]

Bad news…

Telecom have quitely announced (buried halfway down the page somewhere) that free photo messaging is extended until the end of June! This means I have no choice but to continue spamming my Mobog with endless bad-quality photos of pointless crap. Sorry, it’s out of my hands. Honestly.

Spam

OK, I’ve finally found a phlogging service that can deal with the seven layers of crap that Telecom (or Hyundai, or whoever), puts around the images when I send them from my new phone.

Unfortunately I’ve had to return it for replacement. It was advertised in excellent refurbished condition, working [...]

More photo stuff

By ⋅ January 24, 2004 ⋅ Post a comment

OK, so I’ve been playing with this photo blogging stuff a bit more. Looks like the photos are cluttering up the front page a bit, and also if I were to post several images in a day, the site would take longer and longer to load as the posts build up. So, check out the [...]

So in a general sense, here’s how it all hangs together: Palm Zire 71 -> SnapperMail -> Nokia 6385 -> Telecom CDMA -> MFOP2 -> Choccie Blog. Pretty neat eh? The marvels of modern tecknologee…

It wasn’t me officer…
