Pecesama [research blog]

As I said on the last post, I am really interested on microblogging as researcher, so in order to start working on field studies first we will need a robust platform for microblogging, I mean, Codice is good enough but we needed a specialized microblogging's CMS.

So, gelato is a tumblelog CMS built on AJAX, PHP and MySQL.

The gelato project is open source (you can use and change the original source code freely).

The post formats found on gelato include photos, video, audio, links, quotes and dialogues.

Now I can continue exploring the way of get SMS from a cellphone.

This afternoon I’ve been doing some tests with the Wireless Message API on the Nokia 6670, mainly to incorporate microblogging capabilities to the Electronic Family News Paper.

Since microblogging lets you write brief text updates via quickly ways (text messaging, instant messaging, email or even the web) the next step in our project is to add the ability of read SMS in order to update Codice.

But, J2ME doesn’t let you access SMS inbox, I would expect J2ME to support something as basic as this!!

Now I will have to try with a native Symbian application.
