BigPond group managing director, Justin Milne, said: "we expect BigBlog will be popular among young people and families as a 'life sharing' site, where they can keep people up-to-date with their daily going-ons and special events...Customers might be at a party or concert, take a snap with their mobile phone and with one click, publish their photo for millions of people to see online almost instantly. This is a unique feature of BigBlog and we're not aware of any other blog service in Australia that offers this." To use the service, BigPond members simply log onto www.bigblog.com.au, set up their user details, choose one of the 20 templates on offer and start blogging. An additional five mobile numbers can be nominated to upload pictures, texts and video to each BigBlog site. BigBlog members can also choose not to include their site in the BigBlog online community but to disclose their blog link only to selected people. Users will be able to buy additional storage beyond their initial 10Mbyte quote at prices from $2.50 per month for 100MB. "BigBlog is available for both PC and Mac with a Internet Explorer browser and unlike many other Blog services on the market, BigBlog does not limit the number of photos, video and sound files that members can post up at any time." |
