I just started using Posterous.com to help me post blogs while I’m on the road and running around everywhere. Used it for the first time yesterday night while at HardLA festival. Overall I’m pretty impressed. Check out my link to the right under Jason’s Twitter.  Posterous is pretty easy to use and actually allows someone to blog from their mobile phone and automatically post it online. I think twitter is cool - but it’s definately a novelty features, specifically because you only have 140 characters to work with and isn’t really considered a micro-blogging tool. Posterous is a micro - blogging tool because via your smart phone, someone just has to send their blog via email to post@posterous.com and the company will recognize it’s coming from your email and post your blog instantly to your posterous site.  Even more impressive, you can send photos and music to post on your blog. Check out the ringtone I sent in to post@posterous.com as an attachment. The ringtone was posted on my posterous site through their own propriety audio player.

The company is new (from what I know so far) and still doesn’t have the ability for one to customize their site. If they got that straightened out and also allowed adversting on Posterous sites — then I’ll REALLY have an incentive to micro blog via their platform all the time. Either that or wordpress needs to figure this out - so that their bloggers (me) can easily add blogs via mobile, considering I find myself on my phone more then on the computer these days.
