What is microblogging? How do you potentially use it for businesses or personal notifications? How to set up a blog using only portable devices, and what type of things you should/can you blog about while on an airplane, in a hotel, or on the road?

Additionally, if you can blog from your smartphone, that means your market will be able to read your blog from their smartphones.
There are several ways to write a blog message from your phone, the first is to write a post with the text messaging function. The number to send it to is usually a numerical translation of the website (such as 256447 for blogger). Another way to post is to take a picture and send it as an e-mail which uses a different method to deliver than the text messages. Or try using some of the audio blog sites like Cinchcast.com to setup a blog with audio, pictures and captions. Cinchcast.com can be utilized from landline phones or any cellphone by calling a number an leaving an audio message. Cinchcast.com also has an Apple iPhone app that works with iPads, iPhones and iPod Touch devices, as well as an Android app. With these apps, you can post photos, type in a title or caption, and leave an audio blog or message, publish it to Twitter and Facebook with the nice interface in the app and also listen to your followers replies and comments to your blog and to their blogs.

All of these functions can be performed in some of the most remote locations such as hotels, the beach, and the Empire State Lookout. Even planes have signal services (gogo) while most of the world's terminals have wifi, though some restrictions may apply. So kick back and relax at any place with a signal, and get your blog on.
