Blogging on the move

28 May 2004   

 

Lonestar / Windows XP Tablet 2005

Now, this combined with a camera, a good camera mind, with video too, would be to ideal blogging tool for me. Especially if I could get a Vodaphone GPRS card stuck in there.

Imagine out at the park with the kids. Snap a few pix, write a few words, hell I even could get Esme to write a few things, and Bradley to draw a few pictures. Whack that little lot up top the blog, and what a fantastic record of the kids for Nanna and them when they grow up.

Would need to connect up Radio and probably Firefox to this handwriting gig, but it seems that Microsoft has a developer program for this.

As you write and come to the end of a line in the TIP, it automatically creates a second line so you can continue writing. In fact, it will keep opening lines as needed until you run out of screen real estate. Maavelous deal, maavelous. See image below. multi_linetipasis
As you write, the tablet will turn your writing into text, and show you what it thinks you've written. Simply tap on any of these words to correct them as needed. When you tap on a recognized word, the new TIP will show several alternate word choices, or you can write over any letter in your word to correct it. If you've ever used Decuma on the Sony Clie or Pocket PC, the concept is similar. tip_correctionasis
