Not a Dilemma, but making the choice of three possibilities instead of two.
I
keep a Blog. at http://cgmasterchief.blogspot.com/ I can use my phone
to post and it seems to work fine up to the publishing point. I need to
do more tests, but when I tried to publish from work without a wifi
connection... Fail...
Next, I have been reporting all my section
hikes, here on Trail Journals. This seems to work with just a data
connection (more tests in the bush needed), but I have to use the
browser, need to log on and it can be a bit clunky. My TJ link is
http://www.trailjournals.com/jefe
I have recently been trying
out PostHoler.com. This is most likely going to be my "in the field"
journal posting method. I found an app called PCTHYOH which makes
posting an entry using my email program very easy. If I don't have a
connection, it will save the email in my outbox until I do. It can
transfer a large amount of information like GPS coordinates which pull
up a map, start and stop points, miles traveled, elevation changes,
hours hiked, temperatures and even SPOT information if I had one of
those. The real test will be when I'm actually out on the trail hiking
to see how it works. My personal link is http://postholer.com/Jefe
Regardless
of which one I use, I will be taking notes on paper and most likely
typing notes into my phone's notepad program and I will triple post to
each site when I am home or at a computer somewhere.
