We arranged a short synopsis of some articles, reviews etc. we consider to be an excellent entry if you want to enter the moblogging world.
This synopsis does not answer the question "Do I have the best camera phone? Am I a good photographer? Where can I set up a moblog?" and stuff like this.
Instead you´ll get a first impression about: recent developments; background theory; possible complications, implications and issues (photography, journalism, photojournalism, war reports etc.); remaining questions; but also marketsize etc.
If you add the links in the various articles, you should a get comprehensive overview. Try to store articles that you like in your personal CMS; some articles simply might disappear over the time.
We wanted to include these articles, reviews etc. in a separate TypeList, but since the corresponding URL pointing to an article might change from time to time, we decided to post it just the classic way.
Updates to this synopsis might be published in the future from time to time:
