There is much talk about using smartphones to do day to day online activities on the go. Akhil told me to get into road warrior mode with my 5800 XpressMusic. I am not at the benefit of a full blown QWERTY like the Nokia N97 but am still enjoying thumbing away on my touch screen right in the middle of a lecture discussing ways to conduct a detailed NPV analysis of a firm. Ah. . . The beauty in letting ones mind wander ;)
I plan to walk the complete path on this one.... From writing the complete post to using my campus wifi to login into blogger and post publishing, to try and edit the post and insert a picture of my bench mate taken with it right here in class!
Here goes step 1......!
...Well as it turned out, Step 1 failed as I couldn’t post the article in class. Failed to connect to WLAN :( Now I am sitting in the mess and Akhil & Sonali are huddled close to me trying to get me to post my article ASAP. If this step turns out successful, Ill edit my post again and insert a picture. Here goes ;)
Hmmmm... step 1 failed again. It seems mailing go@blogger.com doesn’t work with my carrier which happens to be Airtel. Sonali is giving me the look and Akhil is playing Bounce on his 5800. Last tactic.. Am gonna log in directly into blogger via my web browser and post. This should work.
IT DID!!! We have a post up. Now we are trying to get a pic loaded - Successful!
Its simple. Send a mail using your gmail id from your mobile phone and claim the token at the mobile blogger website. That registers your mobile device. Any subsequent email to blogger automatically posts to the blog. Im loving it!!

@Ashish: That guy ain't that happy studying NPV. That's his "ok-i-smiled-now-stop-taking-snaps-in-class-with-flash-on-or-the-prof-is-gonna-screw-my-happiness" look. How do I know? He is me :(
@Suban: World famous ... huh... and I thought you won't tell the world about my being the mild-mannered alter ego of the famous costumed crime fighter with an "S"... ssshhh-(uperman
@Saurav - LOL. Maybe you want to post a link in the comments section with a link to your amazing SuperMan pic??
