HOWTO: Use Tumblr + iPhone for Mobile Photo Blogging

tumblr_logo.pngA mobile photo blog is a great way to keep friends and family updated with a steady stream of photos from your day to day life.  There are some specialized photo blogging services out there, but since Tumblr is such a good micro blogging platform… it also makes for a perfect mobile photo blog as well.  All the features such as RSS feeds and user comments are built right in.

Its also one of the cleanest looking platforms out there, which is why I personally like it so much. One of the easiest way to get photos from your iPhone to your Tumblr blog is using the Rotzy iPhone app.  This little photo sharing app is great because you can also simultaneously upload your public photos to Twitter, Facebook, Rotzy itself, and even your own website via their widget so even more people can follow your photo stream…

Step 1 - Install Rotzy for free from the App Store

iPhone Photo Sharing Done Right

Rotzy LogoThere are many iPhone photo blogging and photo sharing apps out there, but an up and coming app called Rotzy is trying to expand on the simple idea of uploading photos from your mobile device. Its not simply about uploading photos, but more about the interaction that occurs after you upload a cool or intersting photo. In fact, almost every photo that is uploaded seems to spawn a conversation topic with a life of its own…

How does it work?

bonnie.jpgYou can add friends and follow people much like Twitter, and their photos will appear in your live feed.  This lets you see what your friends are up to and never miss a photo.  Comments on your own photos will also appear in your feed. There are of course privacy settings for your photos and you can add easily turn geo tagging on and off.

What else?

One of the best features is that you can auto-post all your public photos to 3rd party services such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and even your own blog via their widget.  Even more services are coming soon too.  This makes it easy to turn your Tumblr or Twitter account into your own personal photo blog if thats your preferred medium… plus non-iPhone and non-Rotzy users will be able to see everything you upload as well.

So, check out Rotzy if you are looking for a cool way to share your mobile photos from your iPhone…  use it to interact with the vibrant Rotzy community, use it post your photos to all your other social networking services, create your own photo blog on Tumblr, or just use it to save a copy of your photos online for easy linking later on.

Its free at the app store… enjoy!
