Now that the mighty Nokia N900 is making it’s way out to the public we thought it’d be a good time to post a brief guide to getting the N900 connected to the Social Web via Pixelpipe. Here’s a quick overview of how to get your N900 publishing photos and video to over 115 services across the globe with the Pixelpipe plug-in.
Why is this awesome?
- We allow upload directly to the N900 camera and gallery applications to allow for effortless publishing.
- Background uploads! Once you’ve started an upload(s) it’ll go into a queue and deliver your media while your N900 is available and connected via an internet connection.
- Use N900′s Tag Cloud to send to specific services at the time of upload. Just include the service name with an @prefix or create your own custom groups with our Routing Tags feature.
To get started simply:
- Install the Pixelpipe plug-in (only 27kb) from the N900 App. manager
- Authenticate or create a new Pixelpipe account.
- Add any services you’d like from http://m.pixelpipe.com/destinations/add
- You can now configure your preferences for upload from the Sharing accounts settings on the N900
- Select your media and set title and description
- Use the Tag Clouds feature to set tags for your media with a touch or use our Routing Tags feature to send to specific destinations with our Routings Tags feature eg. @twitter, @facebook
Your media uploads will now proceed in the background after you click the “Share” button as you continue to utilize your N900.
Please feel free to send any questions or feedback to nokia@pixelpipe.com.
Great service. Just tested it on an N900. Works fluently and very easy.
can i use pixelpipe to upload to my standalone wordpress blog?
Yes, just use the “Add a blog by address” form on the bottom of the Add Pipes page to add your self hosted WordPress blog to your Pixelpipe account
Very nice.
Just works, simply!
Works perfectly. Initial setup takes ten seconds, and sharing is effortless and fast.
Thanks for such a useful service.
помогите разобраться с телефонам.
I’ve tried already pixelpipe and it works well with my N900.
Anyone notice a problem with not being able to find it in the catalogs now? After the most recent update, without having installed the pipe first, it’s not there. Thoughts?
You can find us in the N900 Ovi store or from the Maemo Select site at http://maemo.nokia.com/maemo-select/applications/pixelpipe-media-gateway-for-nokia-share/
Excellent! Thanks!
Sounds great! Is possible to use pixelpipe to upload/send images to a Cosco and/or Sams Club photo lab and if so is there a size limit or transfer speed guideline? We’re looking at doing this w. N900 on T-mobile…Thanks in advance:)!
Not at this time however we’re trying to get access to upload to Cosco now, stay tuned.
It works on n900. I put video on youtube and it
works. Thank you
thanks for the tutorial, it’s really works.

This is nice, thank you for a grreat application!
Thanks for a great service! It might be that I have to change my whole Posterous workflow into Pixelpipe! Seems to work so nice.
Great, thanks! We support Posterous as a destination service as you may have noticed by now, you can still use Pixelpipe & post to Posterous if you’d like.
Yes I noticed, but I’m currently trying to make smaller the sum of services I use as they’ve grown too many.
One other question I meant to ask: If I send video, tweets, text or images with a mobile device through Pixelpipe, does it forward the location?
I’m in this neat project where one of my friends is taking a bicycle and driving it from Finland to Paris, France during the next July. He’s going to make short video interviews and take pics and other stuff along the way with a mobile device, probably with some of Nokia, we haven’t determined it yet.
So, we’re going to do a website for him and searching ways to do a map mashup where the content and his route could be viewed on the map, based on the location they’ve been taken or send to different services like YouTube and Twitter.
And I was thinking if Pixelpipe could be used as an easy way of uploading the content as he’s on the road for 30+ days? But we’d need the geo-tagging in order to create the map mashup.
If you’re interested to know more, his FB page is here: http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Tre2Eiffel/396223123145?ref=ts
Sorry for the small ad here, but I guess it’s OK as this is a non-profit thing and made just for the passion of meeting likeminded entrepreneurs and other creative, interesting and fun people across the trip!
Is there any plan to support uploads for Orkut?
Yes, coming soon
We released support for photo uploads & status updates to Orkut last night.
Great news!
Just 8 days later. This is a very nice coincidence, or perhaps it is because you guys and girls work very fast!
Kudos to all Pixel Pipe employees!!!
hi, how can i adjust my video while upload to youtube? the quality is the lowest when it transfer to youtube.
You’ll need to adjust the quality on your phone, we don’t modify the video before uploading to YouTube

You can now download our N900 plug-ins in the Ovi store.
