I have been using a Nokia N93 phone for the past 18 months, and I have loved every minute of it. The phone is wi-fi enabled, and has a simply amazing video camera built into it (640X480 VGA video at 30fps, 3X optical zoom, Carl Zeiss optics). I have loved being able to record little moments in my son’s life, and without a thought or a care, to be able to send them from my phone to blip.tv, which transcodes it into flash and cross-posts it to our son’s blog. Done.. No editing video, no transferring it to a computer and manually uploading it somewhere. It has made videoblogging a pure joy.

My phone is starting to show it’s age, and I’m actively looking around to see if there is a suitable replacement, since they aren’t selling the N93 anymore. I cannot imagine being unable to videoblog as I have been.

Mobile video production is also an effective and convenient way to post new and engaging material for customers and clients to see. Examples would be:

• trade show coverage
• community events
• project progress reports
• interviews
• property tours
