I live very far from the rest of my family (too far for them to visit more than once every few years) so I like to keep them updated about what I am doing, i.e. projects around the house, travel, etc... so that they can feel part of my life. Right now I either send them pictures via email or post them on my website but I would like to streamline the process and be able to post things while on-the-go and in real time without having to use my computer.
Using only my cell phone, I have found two possible ways to do that: blogging or twittering. But I can't decide why one would be best for what I want to do. I don't know much about the practicality of either option. I would like to be able to post pictures and few sentences (2-3 times a week, no more), I want to keep it private with only a few select people being able to read it, and I want people to be able to read my posts simply by going on the internet (no extra software, no need to sign up for any service, etc...).
Any suggestions?
