AudBlog -- audio blogging from any phone. (via BoingBoing)
Interesting to see more examples of media-enabled blogging. Last year I hacked together a very simple AudioBlogger tool that used Flash and Flash Communication Server. The advantage of my earlier approach is that the content is embedded into your page for playback (because of a small Flash component in the page), it is entirely streaming-based (upload and download), and also could be recorded from any PC with a microphone. The downside was that you couldn't record from the phone, and you couldn't download the finished audio file (it's tied up on the server).
I can see advantages to both PC and phone-based recording. A lot of blogging is deliberative and done at your PC. Seems like a combination of picture/camera-based moblogging and phone-based voice recording would go together pretty well, enabling more composite media sharing in a mobile context.
