    Default Journal using a Blackberry help

    Well thanks to the company I work for and me being in IT my boss told me to go by any Blackberry I want and they will pay for the phone and the service.

    So now I want to start a online journal and update it while im in the trails. Mostly it will be short weekend trips.

    I am looking for a good journal web site that's easy to use and update from a Blackberry.

    Does anyone know of some sites ?

    Thanks,
    J

    postholer.com - you can update your journal from email and don't have to go to the website

    I used my Blackberry to post both the journal and photos on TrailJournals.com. Very simple where there is any signal at all.

    I used the 8830 and transferred the hi-res photos via the micro card of my camera. An extra step since my Blackberry didn't have a built in camera, but I had the better photos to keep. BTW, it's actually easier to transfer lo-res directly to TJ's.

    I really like both Trailjournal and Posthole, but they are both geared towards writing a journal for long trips.

    I am looking for something that I can somehow talk about my daily activities that have something to do with hiking and backpacking and then also be able to write journals about my trips which I plan on doing many weekend trips a year.
