Okay, let’s see if this works!

So I was looking into ways of administrating this blog from my beloved crackberry Blackberry Bold; and as it turns out:1) third party BB apps suck and 2) WordPress has no love for Blackberry users, there’s an awesome app out there for the iPhone but nothing for Blackberry!  So, as a kinda workaround I’ve installed the WPhone plugin to the site: this gives a nice clean mobile interface for when  I use the web admin page from my Bold.  This lets me do some basic administrative stuff like write and edit posts, but  it doesn’t let you upload photos.  After a bit of investigating it turns out that you can directly e-mail photos through Flickr, and Flickr will automatically generate a  post on your blog.  All you have to do is link your blog to your Flickr account.  As you can see there are some problems with this, there’s a bunch of links that I’d much rather not have, and my e-mail signature also shows up at the bottom of the post.  Maybe a bit more tinkering around with the settings can fix that…
