I am thinking of forking my content. My blog will be for weekly essays. And steverubel.com will go daily. It will include the essays and a lot more.

Because you can do more with the platform on the go.

I stopped using Posterous when wordpress.com enabled post by email. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2009...

Will Google ding you for duplicate content posting of the big stories on two domains?
- Eric Johnson
Dwight and others: Great advice. What's holding me back is SEO. And the comment about Google dinging me for cross posting is definitely valid. Maybe I will make the move, redirect the feed and leave the old site up for archives. Thoughts?

im thinking about doing the same with Posterous..
- andy brudtkuhl
Posterous' lack of URL redirection might make the move tough for SEO. If you import a blog does it keep the same URLs? Right now Posterous doesn't have any other way of specifying them...
- Eric Johnson
@Eric good points.. And no - there is no way to modify Posterous URL's after import

interesting stuff. is email posting actually easier than using the various tools the sites produce? I don't think the duplicate content thing will be an issue for Google - but your new site probably won't get the credit for the content.

I recently switched my personal blog over to Posterous because I just wasn't updating it enough (I'm doing most of my blogging time and effort goes into Expand2Web.) What I like about Posterous is that it is super easy to take photos/videos on my iPhone and email them to my account while I'm on the go. I can post "lifestyle" things easily rather than planning out an entire blog post.
