 I’m currently looking at options for blog updates and photo uploading while I’m in Taiwan and Japan in March and April.<\/p>\n

I have to say that I’m not impressed with the WordPress iPad app. It doesn’t have a lot of options or features, and it isn’t very intuitive.<\/p>\n

I’m pretty pleased with the Blogsy app and I’m writing this post on the iPad using the touchscreen keyboard. I’ll have a keyboard case to use as well, but short amounts of typing on the touchpad isn’t too bad. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A particularly keen feature in Blogsy is the photo uploader. I can add a photo directly from my iPad, or use on of the dock item options. That includes, a web browser to use within the app, my Flickr account, Picasa online account, my YouTube account… The list goes on.<\/p>\n

This photo came from my Flickr account and was uploaded directly from the iPad after transferring photos from my DSLR Canon XTi (the original file was in RAW format).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Next up, it’s deciding on what to do for online backup\/uploading. I have a paid Flickr account and may look into getting a Skydrive or Dropbox account. iCloud may be an option, but if you only receive 2G free… I’m not sure if that will be enough storage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyone out there with online storage options?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

I primarily use PCs, but will be using my iPad while away. I also don’t know what my Internet access will be on a day-to-day basis. Obviously it will be wifi, but there’s not guarantee it will be great (so uploading could take a while). Free time will be limited and there’s also a concern about programs crashing initial the middle of an uploading session. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
