posting from an iPhone to a blog, with pictures, using all free apps and free storage site

A client is going to cycle round India, and wants to blog his trip. But he doesn't want to carry a camera and laptop. I suggested he could do it all for free with his iPhone. To prove it to him, I've posted this fascinating image of a recent online scrabble-esque word game.


Not competitive or anything, but notice who's winning.


How I did it:

  • First I took a snapshot during the WORDS game app.

  • Next I used the PIXELS app to upload this image to mozymac.com.

  • I pasted the mozymac URL into the MAILER LITE app, which I used in a way it wasn't designed for, to prepare the HTML for this post.

  • Finally, I pasted the lot into blogger in SAFARI (the default iPhone browser app).

It sounds like a lot of work, but thanks to the marvelous new iPhone operating system version 4, it's a breeze.

If only I could show the results to the client without blowing my cover.

Next post, I'll try assembling the whole thing and then sending it as an email post from within a single app (Mailer Lite). And without having to upload the picture first to a third site.

  1. Albert? Wouldn't it save a lot of bother if he just kept a journal like they used to do? Hotboy p.s. I suppose then you wouldn't get the joy of reading the Japanese instruction manual.

  3. Albert? There's only one person who is going to buy my kindle book on Amazon. Don't tell me it's not worth 86 pence! Even your wap zap wiki satellite sky network with added on Zeitgeist, which isn't worth a dolphin's fin in the land of the little yellow men, must cost more than 86 pence. Would you let your charming partner converse with moi follicle to follicle for ten minutes so I could convince her to be my agent in the Antipodes for ten percent off the top of 86 pence. That's 8.6 pence a sale!!! She would clean up, so she would, and start living the lifestyle she wished she'd got from hanging about with someone with not enough money like you!! Hotboy p.s. If I was you, I'd get into her for the ten percent of her ten percent. That's .8 of a penny. If you can sell that to Dances With Men Now, you could give me ten percent of that!! Send a cheque right away for ten grand please! pps. You can read it on a phone! They must have phones where you are!

  4. Hotters. My allegedly charming partner is a feminist. The hero of Alma Mater should know what that means. I have no control over anything whatsoever.

    PS - just post a link to the offending tome, and I'll order a copy for every single one my friends at Xmas. That shouldn't break the bank. Cheaper than the 99p vibrators I once gave to everyone.

  5. PS - is it Ancient Futures? That's rather a suggestive cover photo. The price here is about double 86p, so someone's exploiting you to get rich off your back. I'll have to ask amazon for a discount as a reviewer, friend of the author, and appendage of the southern hemisphere agent.

    PS - Sadly, Kindle books cannot be read in the iBooks app. Kindle books can only be viewed and read in Amazon's Kindle app for the iPad, so I would have to first download that.

    PPS - I'll ask the partner, who is about as tech savvy as your good self, to reformat the book and arrange an upload to the apple store - much bigger potential audience.

  6. PPPS - let me know if you want me to post a reader review at the Amazon site, focussing on the sexual subtext, e.g.

    The woman he'd slept with had been hard to leave. "Let me see your ring," he said a little irritably.

  7. Albert? The book is crap of course, but at that price still a steal!!! Hotboy

  8. Albert? I've just been to the book on Amazon and there's no reviews posted yet. Tell them it's a grand eloquent masterpiece of geopolitical pretension. Or something like that! Hotboy
