Hugger at Work
Mar 31, 2008 · 11:15 PM · permalink
We use a collection of mobile apps and hardware for the mobile social, including
- Twitter Mobile — a lightweight page optimized for phones and mobile internet devices
- Flickr emailer — a mailto function from Flickr that includes, title, subject, and tags; take a photo and email it to Flickr.
- TwitterFeed — sends our Hugger feed to Twitter.
- Feedburner — splices our Delicious links, posts, and photos into one feed.
- Movable Type — our blogging engine of choice.
I post with my iPhone and MacBookPro. While not recommend for the non-experienced rider (especially in traffic), I shoot on-the-bike video with a Casio Exilim and edit that in iMovie HD (the older version). We’ll move to Final Cut Pro later in the year with the arrival of the new Canon HDs camcorders. I also expect an incredible offering of mobblogging apps, as soon as developers figure out the iPhone SDK, Intel’s Atom products start showing up, and mobile internet devices mature. We’ll see a bunch of those devices tomorrow here in Shanghai.
Do you have a feed for just the blog posts without the Flickr photostream?
I love your posts but having an item appear in my feed reader every time you post a picture really starts to clog things up.
Tarek,
Good question and I just toggled the photo splice to only the most recent photo — during photo heavy blogging like our shanghai trip that can get tedious. I’m also working on why twitterfeed is posting duplicates.
Yo, just ordered my new camcorder, card, wide-angle lens, and microphone. unfortunately, the mic is still about a month away, so i won’t get the audio improvement just yet. still, this is gonna be way cool.
Update: just turned off twitterfeed and turned down the photo splicing even farther. Apologies for the duplicate posts and photo overloads.
Thanks a ton for that, DL! (although the flickr photos are still showing up in Google Reader as of the Compal Ubuntu shot at 9:34 am EST today…)
that’s should be the last one that shows up — the splice is still on, but with tighter parameters
