I picked up a Motorola Razr last week when my previously trusty Nokia 3360 suddenly died. I've been playing around with it and I've finally got some of the features figured out. The phone has a camera. Not great quality. 1.2 megapixels, but I always have with it and it's connected. So now I can take mediocre quality pics and post them immediately online. I don't want to clog up this blog with these shots, but you can find them on a Blogger blog I set up, Idle Images, and they will simulataneously be posted on my Flickr site. If I can figure out how to give them subjects as I post them remotely then I'll really have something. In the meantime, it's pretty cool to be able to share this stuff almost instantaneouly. What I really need is a killer 5 mexapixel ultracompact camera that's also a phone instead of a fully featured uberconnected phone that also takes little pictures, and that will come in time, no doubt.


Not a bad shot for the camera phone. The light really needs to be perfect to get anything close to reasonable, but it's not about makiing museum quality prints, it's about documenting.
