Farcast Moblogger users receive a free Farcast blogsite, with a unique
location mapping interface, for posting their content and airing their
views. Users can also define additional endpoints and set their preferences
to forward items either automatically or manually. In this way, users of

not (yet) supported can make use of MMS uploads and still enjoy the
benefits of a free moblog and all the forwarding possibilities of the
Farcast Moblogger service.
Farcast Moblogger comes from the same stable as Farcast Reporter, the
successful mobile reporting service being used by leading news providers
like "De Volkskrant" and "Gazet van Antwerpen". Like Reporter, Moblogger
also utilises the award winning technology of the Farcast Content
