• Wife is a “Received call”
  sight is a “Dialled call”
  Girl friend is a “Missed call”

  BUT Friendship is “FEVICOL”

Nowadays where many people have camera phones will one way or other want to share their “Kodak Moments” with family , friends or with entire world. Now a company called Shozu has come out with a software for mobile phone through which you can send / share your photos through e-mail or to your blog. To start sharing your photos / videos from your mobile, just follow these simple steps,

1. Go to Shozu website and sign-up for a free account.
2. Download the software to your mobile ( Check their compatibility list to see whether your mobile is supported and you need to have GPRS activated in your mobile phone)
3. Then start the application from your mobile and activate their service first.
4. Then you can add the destination (where you want to send your photos ) through your mobile or their website. Personally i feel, doing this through their website is easier.
5. Then from the Shozu application in your mobile all your photos & videos will be listed and you can send it to the destination you have configured.

I’ve sent a photo to My Flickr account in a few clicks. After the initial set-up phase sharing & sending is very easy. For some unfortunate reasons I was not able to set-up my blogger account as a destination. Shozu also has other services called Zucasts and back-up contacts which is supported only in mostly symbian and windows powered smartphones.

Now share your photos on the move …Enjoy!!
