Written by googirama   
Saturday, 05 November 2005

When Merriam-Webster compiled a list of the most searched words of 2004, the word 'blog' (short for weblog) topped the charts.

However, blogging's younger sibling, the mobile-blog, is rapidly becoming one of the most popular online phenomenon worldwide. Mobile-blogging, or moblogging - basically, using camera phones to post pictures and text on a weblog - is captivating thousands of new converts every week from Atlanta to Zagreb.

The sites allow you to send in pictures and captions from your phone, which are then automatically arranged into an online scrapbook free of charge. On most sites, users can leave comments on pictures taken by others as well as create links to their friends' photo blogs and send messages to fellow users. You can often choose whether to keep your moblog private with a password or not.
