Posterous theme by Cory Watilo

It appears that many of us are looking forward to being able to "post once" and having it pushed out to all our blogs and social networks. If Google intends to be a player in this they need to roll out an API for developers ASAP. I know I anticipate a fully integrated web presence sooner than later.

Tip For Posterous Users & Folks Who Want To Cross-Post From G+:

Want to post something to your posterous blog from G+? And since Posterous can then AutoPost to just about anywhere (Twitter, Wordpress blogs, etc.) that means you can cross-post to those services as well.

Step 1: First, go to your Posterous "Manage" area for your blog and click on "Settings" (upper right). Then click on the "Edit" button in the "Commenting and Posting" section. In the first dropdown select "Anyone can post, I will moderate" and then 'Save Settings'. This step is required so that Posterous will accept email from G+ to your blog.

Step 2: In G+, add a new person for your circles using your posterous posting email's address (e.g. yourname@posterous.com). You can find that email address in the same "Manage" section from step 1.

Step 3: Create a new circle called "Posterous" and add the new 'person' you created in Step 2.

Step 4: Now for any post you make in G+, that you would like to also post to your Posterous blog simply add the 'Posterous' circle to that post. Make sure you check the box that says "Also email 1 person not yet using Google+" before clicking 'Share'.

Step 5: You will get an email from Posterous telling you that a post has been submitted, and a link for approving it to be published publicly. Please note that this allows you to store these posts in Posterous until you've approved them and until such time as you can go and make an edit, add imagery, etc. if you so choose.

Enjoy.

Hi, my name's jeber, and I'm a technoholic

I have websites, my own and one I created for my job.  I have blogs, some topical some general, some I'm even paid for posting to.  I have a list of favorite sites that looks like the appendix of a master's thesis.  I have a Tumblr account and post regularly on Friendfeed and Twitter.

Why do I need Posterous?

Because:

I'm more than willing to check out and review any new site that offers to make posting to my friends and readers easier and more straight-forward than most blogs make it.  I enjoy being in at or near the startup of new services, to see how they scale and what other users make of them.  I'm always looking for better ways to bring sites and posts that I think deserve a broader audience to those who choose to follow me.

I'm not an internet celebrity.  I don't have thousands of followers who breathlessly trail around behind me on the web.  I'm an average enduser, someone who values a good user interface, simple controls and consistent uptime.  There are a few friends of mine who read my blogs and my newsletter.  It's among this circle that I enjoy introducing what's new on the internet, what can make their use of the web more enjoyable and productive.

Oh yeah, I also have a very warped sense of humor that never rests.  You may see traces of that as time goes on.

It's all about community and the conversation.
