Blogger Mobile

For US Bloggers there's a new Mobile Service from Google's Blogger.

Without needing any computer, a user can simple send pictures to blogger with a caption and they will be posted on a brand new blog. People with existing blogs can have their pictures delivered there instead. Potential uses could include amateur journalism, holiday reporting or just sharing your views of the world.

Blogger also had an audio blog function but this has been discontinued, Gabcast and Hibcast are commercial services that replace that functionality.
