From a little blog on the New York times<\/a>:<\/p>\n

We always risk and often achieve a “I just heard this great new band called Vampire Weekend” moment by recommending Internet Things, but it’s been a hard day…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And I’m going to take the same risk; sorry if you seen this, done this, know this already, don’t care either way, but I’m currently captivated by the simple, powerful, beauty of posterous<\/a>. It’s been around for a while but I’ve only just appreciated what it does.<\/p>\n

If you need to declare, brag, or shout about something and you don’t have a blog, just email whatever it is to post@posterous.com<\/a> and your email, together with any attachments, get instantly turned into a beautiful blog post. For example: http:\/\/veghead.posterous.com\/<\/a>. You don’t need to set anything up, sign anything, or even think about it. Just send an email, and a few seconds later you get mailed back with the url of whatever you posted. Of course, should you wish, you can maintain the url and keep posting stuff to it – just like a real blog – but you don’t have to. Try it!<\/p>\n

Whether it will scale, get clogged with spam, or just vanish, we’ll see. But I love to see a brilliant idea brilliantly executed, especially when it’s so simple.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
