Finally someone has created a tool that allows for very simple setup of moblogging (mobile phone blogging). Flickr allows you to email images from camera phones (in this case sending an MMS via a Nokia 7610) straight to a blog. Great work!

This is a test post from , a fancy photo sharing thing.

I received some spam today. It was made out to “Paris Ruff” with my email address. Must be my porn name.

Last week Perth hosted the Comm-IT Conference. It focused on communications and IT, specifically on e-Business, Security, WiFi, RFID, VOIP and Open Source. I was lucky enough to be a speaker (see the last post), and presented a talk by Simon Phipps, Sun’s Chief Technology Evangelist. Waves of Change, Rivers of Freedom.

It was great fun preparing for the presentation, mainly because it focused on my favourite topic, how the world is changing because of mass connectivity.

Luckily my presentation was taped by a clever crew from Media Farm who have a great solution for anyone interested in streaming video to the internet. So rather than repeat the content, if you’re interested, you can swing on over to a collection of the presentations, including mine, at their Comm-IT 2004 WebCast Special.

Here’s a fuzzy photo of the audience at Comm-IT this morning. A good demonstration of Massively Connected Society.
