Foneblogging
Just back from a day-trip to Dublin. It's a long day (out at 7am, home by 9:30pm) but it avoids a night away. During the day I dropped in on NewBay, makers of Foneblog, to catch up on their progress. They are now getting on well with O2 Ireland and have a steady base of users paying €2.50/month to maintain journals on their site. The question I asked was, are these journals just annotated photo albums, or are they weblogs in the sense that my readers would understand. They commented that they're not sure their customers actually care - no-one so far has asked for RSS feeds, or referrer logs, or any other paraphenalia. Is this community the future Steve Gillmor is evangelising or is it just a bubble? My vote is for 'future', BTW...
