Yesterday, with some help, I managed to connect my Flickr account to my blog. The picture below was sent via email to a specific email address and then posted automatically by flickr to the blog. It has been suggested to me that if I look at the java email api I can find a way to grab images from my web camera and email them to a specific email address. Unfortunately, in conjunction with trying to figure this out I am having extensive problems with WinVdig. It was working perfectly until today. Dan has suggested several remedies, among the first being to use an older version of vdig (vdig 99- available on the VXP wiki), which I am going to try first in order to avoid using JMF and setting up preferences. My next attempted remedy will be to use http://abstractplane.com.au we'll see what works. Ultimately, I am much more interested in being able to transmit some kind of video to my blog. I am currently doing some research into how this would be possible.
