I’m heading off to Paris tomorrow on my Brompton folding bike along with 21 other parents and teachers to raise money, among other things, for my sons’s school.
As ‘chief technologist’ for the event I wanted to make sure the whole team could report back to base on what’s going on during the 4 day ride. While some of the team have the very latest in mobile communication devices, there are also some old school work horses that just phone and text.
So I went ahead and fired up a virtual mobile number, connected it to the web site using the Esendex API and we were live. I’ve mixed in a Flickr stream as well and very easily we have a live view, updatable by everyone from wherever they are.
