[icernet] Mobile blogging could be the next big thing

[Arul Selvan]

Mobile weblogs could change the way customers exchange information and voice opinion. Mobile blogging, or moblogging, gives people the means to contribute to blogs via cell phones, PDAs, digital cameras and laptops. Such wireless devices give their users the power to go online and speak up no matter where they are. As Business 2.0 put it, moblogging "can turn any street corner, checkout line, or supermarket aisle into a multimedia complaint hotline." Technology is evolving to make it easy for people to moblog. Users of a new handheld device named Sidekick can easily get online and send text and pictures to Hiptop Nation, a mobile weblog. According to Business 2.0, some of those who contribute to the moblog are posting information or opinions about companies and products, from hyper-markets to chewing gum.
