Online Video Posting

So I’m looking to use Textpattern as a lifestream. And there are many gaps to fill but hoping seasoned TXP’rs can help out. I want to create posts on the fly from my mobile phone for text, photos, and videos. Currently I only have a solution for photos (Flickr will automatically create a post on my TXP site when I email it a photo).

Can anyone recommend services that will automatically create a post for me when I send it an SMS message or a video? Youtube offers the video portion, but only for select blogging platforms (not TXP). And I’ve only found LetmeParty.com so SMS posting, but it seems a little shady.

Any ideas would be appreciated!!

Re: Online Video Posting

You could try Vimeo. It has a widget which automatically updates when you upload a new video. It’s a widget, so it;s not creating a post for you…


Prrrrrrrr

Re: Online Video Posting

Thanks TNT – I’m actually going another route now. I’m going to be modifying bit_rss to allow a user to import a feed as a TXP article. This way I can just grab the RSS feed from any site I use (Flickr, Viddler, Last.FM, Tumblr, etc.) and add the items as articles. I’m on my way to creating a lifestream :).
