2. Register on Glogger
- Sign up here
to create a glog account and begin your personal Glog.
- If you want to email your images in from your cameraphone, email your glogger inbox at: i.yourusername-yourpassword@www.glogger.mobi. The username and password is the same as the one you registered with Glogger. Don't forget the "-" between your username and password! Here's an example, if the username is "jane", and the password is "sunny", then the user's glogger inbox is: "i.jane-sunny@www.glogger.mobi"
- You can register on the site, but if you got a Nokia/Sony Erricsson cameraphone you can open your mobile browser, and set it to http://m.eyetap.org and download the Glogger program. After it's downloaded, you can go through the registration steps there as well.
3. Start Glogging!
- From A Nokia or Sony Erricsson Cameraphone (the best).
So you already browsed your phone to http://m.eyetap.org, and downloaded the glogger program. It should be in your Applications/Game directory. Now sign in with your glogger user id and password. Start the glogger program up, and begin broadcasting your images and video to your glog!
- From Any Cameraphone that can email (smtp) images.
Save your personal glogger email address i.yourusername-yourpassword@www.glogger.mobi, where username/password is the same as what you registered with, to your cameraphone. Don't forget the "-" between your username and your password. Here's an example, if the username is "jane", and the password is "sunny", then the user's glogger inbox is: "i.jane-sunny@www.glogger.mobi" Now, whenever you send a picture or video to your glogger inbox from your cameraphone, it will post to your glog!
- From Any Digital Camera.
After you registered on glogger, sign in with your username and password at the top right of the page. Click the Go to Your Glog and Upload button. Once you are at your glog, notice the Upload a File section under your content grid. Begin uploading media files to your glog!

Glogger is being developed with the vision of bringing personal imaging to the
masses. Glogger provides a set of novel applications and services that allows
anyone, and anywhere, to continuously capture, archive, record and share
personal experience through images.
Links to some previous glog work:
With the widespread adoption of camera phones, now anyone with a camera phone
can glog (instead of having to have a wearable computer!).
