this is a test to blog by mobile phone from tamale. No more technical bandwith excuses not to blog in ghana... )
In my blog I share about learning design with technology, blended learning & knowmad learning. I started with a focus on communities of practice. I share personal experiences, articles and cases.
I actually thought it failed, till I saw the message posted as draft post in my blog- so I had to approve it first online :(
ReplyDeletewell, another thought just came to my mind ... how good will you be typing with your mobile phone? How fast, how many pages are you willing to 'poke' around with your fingers on the 'tiny' keypad?
ReplyDeleteI heard you can buy a rolled-up keyboard, and if you have usb port you might be eventually able to connect it to your mobile phone??? Perhaps some techie reading this blog can confirmed?

Hi Joitske, great to read this small message from Tamale! Have you tried it the other way around as well? Importing RSS via SMS?
ReplyDeleteTechnologies to connect mobile phones to email to content management tools (such as Blogger) have been around for some time. It can make us all exiting to see the opportunities for content uploading and downloading. I sure know I am! Still, I never heard of anyone seriously using this in a developing country other than western development workers experimenting with tools. Does that mean that it's nice in theory but never will be more than a gadget? Have you shown this technology to the people you are working with in Ghana and do they see any need (and do they feel able and comfortable) using it? Or is that too early in the process, seeing as how you gave your web 2.0 workshop only days ago?
