How to: Send Photos & Videos To FB, Twitter, Flickr, etc Using Share Online with MobyPicture

I like Shozu because of the one-click upload, but some people might like MobyPicture better. Moby is patched into Nokia Share Online so you can upload photos and videos to social media locations like Flickr, Facebook, and Twitter without a third-party app like Shozu running in the background.

Setup

First, register a free account at Mobypicture. You can just use your Twitter credentials, but remember the PIN number that appears on your account page.

Point your phone to http://mobypicture.com/?nso

You will be asked to download a configuration file for Share Online. Save it to your phone and open it.

After Mobypicture has been added as a provider in Share Online, you need to enter your username and PIN.

You might also want to check the settings to upload the original size for better quality.

That’s it! After taking the picture, you can click Send – Upload or Post to web (depending on which Nokia you’re using), select Mobypicture, then give it a title before uploading.

Thoughts

Shozu is still the faster way if you want to immediately tweet and send photos online because of the one-click feature, but Mobypicture is a nice alternative. There’s no app running in the background that uses up RAM or battery.

The Good

  • No app running in the background.
  • Built-in with Nokia Share online.
  • Nice mobile site.
  • Shows links to all the other destinations the photo/video was uploaded to.
  • Option to update Facebook status with the photo.

The Bad

  • More clicks than Shozu
  • The URL’s posted on Twitter are too long
