Preposterously Easy Blogging
Blogging has certainly become easier in the last year or so -- not necessarily the content creation part, *that* involves engaging brain which no amount of technology can replace, it's more the physical act of posting the content. Having said that, it's become "easier" rather than easy full stop. That means there's still a barrier to entry and so blogging has retained some level of technical knowledge. Until now.
New service Posterous removes any remaining geekery by making it as easy to write a blog post as it is to email your friends - one of the ways digital communication is now achieving genuine mainstream adoption by becoming desperately simple. And once digital communication becomes seamlessly integrated (or INLINE, as we call it), then that's when things get really exciting. PostscriptTime now to put my money where my mouth is. I'm going to give Posterous a roadtest by creating one at http://posterous.dontgomad.com I've set it to autopost content across my main blog www.dontgomad.com and my Twitter account www.twitter.com/dontgomad to form the basis of a simple lifestream.
