Device, method, and computer program product for providing enhanced blogging features on a mobile phone
First Claim
1. A method of updating a blog web-site using a portable mobile communications device equipped with one or more data generating sensors, the method comprising:
- acquiring sensor data from the one or more data generating sensors, where the one or more data generating sensors detect that a user is starting to exercise, and where the one or more data generating sensors generate biometric sensor data and comprise a biometric sensor that includes at least one of a heart rate monitor, a blood pressure monitor or a body temperature monitor;
creating a blog entry based on the acquired sensor data from the one or more data generating sensors;
transmitting the blog entry from the portable mobile communications device to a blog Internet web-site over a mobile network having Internet access;
creating a blog update profile containing parameters that indicate a schedule for automatic blog updates and that indicate which sensor data to include in a blog update;
determining that the blog entry indicates a health risk to the user;
prompting the user, in response to determining that the blog entry indicates the health risk to the user, to contact emergency services; and
acquiring, according to the blog update profile, updated sensor data from the one or more data generating sensors to update the blog entry.

Abstract
A method, device and computer program product for updating a blog web-site use a portable mobile communications device equipped with one or more data generating sensors. This includes acquiring sensor data from the sensors and creating a blog entry containing the acquired sensor data. The blog entry is then sent from the portable mobile communications device to a blog Internet web-site over a mobile network. A blog update profile indicates a schedule for updates and which sensor data to include. Sensor blog data can also be appended to manual blog entry data to form a single blog entry. The sensors can be integrated within the portable mobile communications device, or can be accessories that are communicable with the portable mobile communications device. The sensors can include a location determination sensor, an accelerometer, a heart rate monitor, a blood pressure monitor, or a body temperature monitor.
