Photo Blogging To Share Community
One really easy way to use mobile technology to foster and build community is thru the use of photoblogging. For many people, they own a mobile phone with a camera, and therefore the opportunity to share good (and sometimes embarassing) moments of the community can be made.
There are many solutions out there that will enable you to start photoblogging from your mobile phone or smartphone for little to no cost at all (the main cost being the data package you would need with your phone in order to upload the images). Some of the more popular photo blogging sites are Flckr, TextAmerica and Splash Blog.
With my Treo, I use SplashBlog. It downloads as a free application and works wih my camera in order to produce photos that I can upload to the web (in most cases pretty immediately). Splash Blog I reall simple to use, and it is free until you hit 500 pictures, and then there is a yearly fee that let's you use it without any restrictions.

Also, a big thanks also to the folks at eBible.com who sent me this shirt and made me the talk of church yesterday (of course me limping like the granny on the shirt brought some attention to myself as well). If you have not tried eBible.com's take on the online bible, sign up for an invite to the beta, or wait till the next MMM contest so that you can win one :-)
