Blogging in the Wildreness - a How To

In Testing Moodle Blog: Mark’s personal blog I talk about what I really want to be able to do with “blogging in the wilderness™”

What I really want to be able to do:

• post with a fully functional blog system (rather than stripped down email). It doesn’t neccessarily have to be online on the internet.
• incorporate photos. Edit and manipulate photos — preferably with Photoshop Elements (v3)
• incorporate podcasts. I’d likemto be able to record impressions in the field and add them to my blog entry for that day.
• incorporate video clips. Why not podcast containing short video clip such as what you can do with most of the new prosumer digital cameras?

Problems:

1. hardware - weight and provision of power.
2. software to do remote blogging and updating of home blog.
3. Internet connection — WiFi, 3G, Euro standards etc
