Forecasting the use of cameras in mobile phones by examining weblogging in Poland

Christopher L. Filkins

The first international conference on Moblogging happened in Tokyo last month. [ed. July] There, I saw Mie from TokyoTidbits was publishing pictures from her KDDI phone. Each picture was encoded with the longitude and latitude of the place she had taken it, using a GPS system embedded in the device. For certain pictures on her web site, you could click a little location button next to the picture, and you'd see a map of Tokyo come up, with a star marking the place she'd taken that picture.
