Hey folks,

I just learned how to use Flickr.com to moblog. I sent this picture from my cellphone straight to my blog.

New York Public Library - Mobipocket and Adobe Readers

I bought a PocketPC about a year ago, went through checking out all the available software, and now that the dust has settled there are only a few applications that I use religiously. The two I use every single day are Windows Media Player and Mobipocket Reader.

Mobipocket Reader is a pseudo RSS reader, in that it allows you to subscribe to RSS feeds, but the kind people at Mobipocket set it up do download and store all the right links to your device. I subscribe to these publications through Mobipocket, and it's really easy and nice to use:

ABC News: Politics
Ask Metafilter
BBC World
Belmont Club
Boing Boing
CNet News
CNN
Drudge Report
Engadget
eWeek Technology News
Game Ranking Top Ten
Geek.com Wireless Edition
I.Wanna.Be.A.Porn.Star
Instapundit To Go
Linux Reference
Linux.com
Movable Type
MozillaZine
MSN Slate Magazine
Neil Gaiman Blogger
New York Times
News Of The Weird
Online Blog - Guardian Newspaper
OnPolitics
PC Magazine: Tech Commentary
Pocket PC Addict
Pocket PC Mag
Reuters
Slashdot
Slate
Techbook
The Guardian
The Inquirer
The New American
The Register
The Scobelizer
The Washington Times
Torches Over the Wino
Wired
Working For Change
Yahoo Top Stories
Yahoo!

Mobipocket runs on PalmOS, PocketPC, and a handful of cellphones and other devices. Here's the download section with the full list of platforms:

I was happy when my friend Mary told me that the New York Public Library started an Ebook "lending" program. I went to go take a look at the titles they had available, and noticed that they support only two reader platforms... Adobe Acrobat Reader and... MOBIPOCKET READER!!!

If that's not a great endorsement of a product, I don't know what is. Go get Mobipocket now!
