Insights from Googlers into our products, technology, and the Google culture
They are among us
May 6, 2005
Posted by Biz Stone, Blogger Team
There's no cause for alarm, but we wish to note that millions of people walking around *right now* are carrying little blogging devices. That's what we on the Blogger team call them, anyway. Others might refer to them as "mobile phones." It's all semantics.
The point is,
we've launched Blogger Mobile
. It's nothing fancy, really. All you need to do to use it is send an email or MMS from your phone to go@blogger.com - and that's it. We automatically create your blog, and whatever text or photos (or both) you send in the message becomes your post. Continue posting by sending more messages to go@blogger.com and congratulations: you are a blogger.
There's also this part we call "claiming your blog." That means you visit
go.blogger.com
and enter the token we send to your phone. When you sign in with this token, you get full Blogger access to all of your various settings, plus the ability to switch your posts to an existing blog if you already have one.
You may now use a mobile device to create and update your blog while you're
on-the-go
. See? Little blogging appliances — they are among us.
