Android has an embedded camera
Figure out the best way to post images and to node_save them accordingly.

Macronomicus commentedThere is also audio support and should be video soon too .. though there is no good video app on the market just yet.
It would be nice if right after taking or saving a picture there was a button in the camera gui to store to drupal instead of sd card, then maybe some attribs could be attached like Lat/Lon, date etc. Then in the drupal screen could add taxonomy description etc. Could even tie into cck content_type's like documenting travel, events, expeditions, breadcrumb Gmaps, inspections etc.
Plus with this you can store many magnitudes more photos only limited by your server space, and access them whenever/where-ever.
Uber Sweet!

lotyrin commentedThe Android interface for both the camera and image galleries has a "Share" feature, where apps can register the ability to upload photos to various services (Twitpic+Twitter, Email, Facebook, Etc.) The app has the ability to ask for additional information during the upload, this could include all of the fields on our node form. You could likely even provide a menu listing any content types that have image fields, then display the node form.

lotyrin commentedActually, upon selecting a file and a content type, it would be ideal, if possible, to open the user's browser to the actual node form, pre-filled with the file in question, as the Android Browser is plenty capable of using it.
