Nokia cites Globe for mobile blogging

Nokia, the global leader in mobility, has announced that Globe Telecom is the first operator in the world to offer its customers a fully integrated mobile online sharing experience with the newest compatible Nokia Nseries multimedia computers.

Without the need to download or install any additional applications, Globe customers can now upload their photos and video clips directly from their compatible Nokia Nseries device to G-Blogs, Globe’s mobile blogging service.

The first devices to support this feature are the Nokia N93 and Nokia N73 multimedia computers.

Globe customers can also post entries to G-Blogs directly through Nokia Lifeblog, a unique collection and storage solution for personal multimedia content, where, with the push of a button, content from a Nokia handset can conveniently be transferred to a compatible PC or to an online blog.

Nokia Lifeblog is available in all Nokia Nseries devices and other Nokia handsets such as the 3230, 7610, 6680, 6681, 6630 and 6260.

More information on how to use Nokia Lifeblog with G-Blogs can be found at www.g-blogs.com.

"Online sharing is one of the hottest trends to hit the cyber scene," said Mikko Pilkama, director for multimedia of Nokia.

"More and more people each day use blogging as a medium to share their thoughts and daily musings with the rest of the world, and we are thrilled that Globe has chosen Nokia’s integrated online sharing solution to make blogging as easy and convenient as possible for its customers," Pilkama added.

"G-Blogs is the service of choice for people who want to stay connected to and updated about their online communities," said Rina Azcuna, value-added services head of Globe Telecom. "We are delighted to cooperate with Nokia in providing a mobile blogging experience like no other."

Nokia has enhanced the image gallery on its devices to enable photographers to share full-size images that they have taken with their Nokia Nseries multimedia computers.

This enhancement allows access to one or several online services such as G-Blogs. The Nokia N72, N73 and N93 are the first Nokia devices to make use of this integration, which is found in the gallery and camera applications.
