News - Create simple websites using your BlackBerry email

A new service, elog.com, can use an email from your BlackBerry to create
a website straight from your device. With elog.com, you don't need to
register an account and you can create as many web pages as you want.
All you have to do is send an email to elog.com and your webpage is
created automatically.

elog.com is a simple and non-invasive service. Your website looks
exactly like the email you send and it can serve a variety of purposes.
The email address and the URL are neatly and cleanly tied together. For
example, sending an email to 12329@elog.com is tied to
http://12329.elog.com. By not "getting in the way", it can even be used
to update smaller areas on a larger web page (like updating the
weather/conditions in the upper right part of some larger unchanging web
page).

Currently, the system does not allow for attachments, but the company
has told me that if the BlackBerry community were interested in such a
feature, it would be easy to implement. Is this a feature you would like
to see?

This is an example of the type of website you can currently create. It
took about 10-15 minutes.
