Posterous : “So Easy A Caveman Can Do It!”

So one of the kool new services out recently is the blogging and publishing service Posterous which takes blogging and makes it so simple that you can create a blog post, email it to the service, it is posted on their site, then it can be broadcast out to other services like facebook, twitter, friendfeed, and a handful of other services you use.

I use Posterous for two of my blogs Docking Bay 94 which i use to post videos, funny pictures, geeky stuff and then At The Movies With The Geek which is where I post movie trailers, posters, and my movie reviews.

Robert Scoble recently sat down with the founders of Posterous to get some insight on the service. the design, and of course the future of the service.

I also found a little screencast that goes through posting to the service and shows just how easy it is to use.

So there you have it...A little look into a simple yet very powerful service that keeps getting better and better. I think for someone like me the pushing out of my posts to all the other services I use is the huge selling point of using ther service. Posting a picture and having it blasted out to twitter, facebook, friendfeed, ect is huge! And it saves me from having to do multiple posts.

If you wanna follow the progress of Posterous you can follow their blog or you can follow them on twitter as well.

(jeff)isageek.net – extended edition

So I am always looking for new ways to share kool stuff out there with everyone but don't want to cram everything into one blog and have 40 posts a day. So thats when I decided to break up my posting/sharing habits with the service Posterous.

First I like to post a lot of geeky pics, videos, just off the wall stuff so I thought for my first Posterous blog I will go with Docking Bay 94 (which is a star wars reference) and make that the place for all geeky, off the wall, whatever goes.

Second I like to share movie trailers, movie posters, and of course my movie reviews so I decided to create a Posterous blog called At The Movie With The Geek where you can find all those goodies as well.

I am working on a third right now called PixelBits but it is not quite ready (or no content) so you should see it soon but it will be a place where I post pictures I just snap so it could be pretty much anything that catches my eye.

So there you have it some stuff I am pushing out there to extend what I do here on the blog and around the web. One great thing I really like about Posterous is the ability for it to take my posts to the service and blast it out to my twitter, friendfeed, flickr, ect at one time making the actual work I need to do to share it with everyone pretty much 0%.

Hope you enjoy the blogs and feel free to share the content with all your followers as well.
