Playing with my iPad and testing BlogPress

Image
Yesterday, I made my first post with a video, and today I am again trying something new: blogging from my new toy....errr...work device...ok...it's something in between that is closer to a toy. I've downloaded some apps--some purely for fun and others to help my productivity--that I've been taking for test drives, and now it's BlogPress's turn...so far, so good, but I've only been typing so far. Let's see how it does with a picture... All too easy. That picture is one taken with the iPad's front camera, and here is one with that hard-to-aim rear camera...

I figured it would be as good a subject as any for a test post of the "ShowMe! Photo Blogger" app I just downloaded... Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry Powered by ShowMeBlogger.com

I'm set up for mobile postings (I think)

Ok, so I've set up my Blackberry to allow me to post while on the go. This is great. Now I can write about all the exciting things going on as they happen, rather than post about them when I get back home. Right now, I am getting my oil changed. Yeah, real exciting. More seriously, this post is a test. Had this been something I really wanted to write about, I probably would have waited until I got home and was in a better position to more carefully edit...
