Just did my first post on Posterous today! - Mahendra (SkepticGeek)

love posterous - (jeff)isageek

I think so too! - Michael Fidler

I agree with you, that Posterous will become a major player, but right now I don't like how a lot of people use it. For a lot of people Posterous seems to be just a plain hub for all their multimedia activities (picture/audio/video sharing) but nothing else. There should be more behind it (IMHO). I like your approach to Posterous, this is the way it should be. - Georg Mahr

The only feature Posterous really needs to become "the next big platform" is a Backtype-like integration of external comments, esp. from Friendfeed and Twitter. - Rubin Sfadj

I have to sign up for this. I think i could use it well. - Amani

I have to agree! Simplicity is extremely powerful. - Peter du Toit (S.Africa) from fftogo

I removed my movie blog and now use posterous for it. I think it's like they said. It's great for casual blogging. - Shevonne

I really like Posterous, but the next big platform? I'm not so sure. - Bwana ☠

I feel the same as Bwana. - Akiva

I started on Saturday and I really love the feel of it. I think it'll become popular. - Gus

I'm rooting for posterous because they validate what I think is a big space between media sharing and blogging, a space I'm working to be in too. - Bruce Lewis from fftogo

I have a ShakeItPhoto blog using Posterous @ http://veryredrobot.posterous.com. Easiest thing to do, I love it. - Brian Felix

It took my awhile to find its place in my online life but I've found it perfect for a mobile blog. I really dig it. http://tsudo.posterous.com - Keith - @tsudo

Thanks for posting Steve, and I agree with one of the comments that Posterous should add some sort of social commenting. - Wayne Sutton

I'm right there with you, Steve. It is refreshing to focus on content. Sure, I miss my Wordpress blog at times, but as a designer, I know that beautiful things come from exercising creativity within parameters: twitter capped us at 140 char, and posterous gives us all the same gallery space to make our own, without all the anxiety for the extraneous (putting a widget for here, writing a custom module for that...). So liberating and fresh in its simplicity! I'm completely sold on the lifestreaming concept -- I've sent 1,000 cards to print with my new approach to relationship building: http://lifestream.vincentgallegos.com. - Vincent Gallegos

@Vincent that's so cool! - Steve Rubel from email

I should get over there and see what all the buzz is about. Is it like Tumbler?? - Jannifer @wordsforliving

Yes, but in other ways better. In some ways worse. - Steve Rubel from email

Theming is coming. I am in the beta but haven't applied a theme yet. - Steve Rubel from email

geez, i hope so, as I grabbed rex.posterus.com before you started hyping it. Of course, when I get around to doing anything with it, you'll be on to the next shiny next big platform - Rex Hammock

What are the differences between posterous and tumblr ? - archi_bald

Mashable did a good write up recently. - Steve Rubel from email

I'm a Tumblr fan. I like the customisation and simplicity of use. - Kate Foy

@holden here http://mashable.com/2009... - Steve Rubel from email

Awesome service. And you can even post on the go via email! - wiredgnome

I honestly believe Posterous CAN be at least ONE of the next big platforms. We (us, are they still saying techies?) love to talk the talk about web 2.0 and worlds of Google's Wave, but if anybody benefits from Google, it'll be bloggers who post directly from Gmail to Posterous. We often boast these days that "content is key" is passe, and new language is needed. But the bare bones of it say we like Scoble, Rahsheen, Leonhard, Rubel & Sutton based on their content, how good it is, how it helps us and in music guys like me, how you leverage it (being honest guys!!). The bare ease of use of this tool should say it all. With talks of some more 'design trinkets' I think this tool COULD be a standard. Hey, who's doing their marketing? Just asking. - professor daddyo

nah. Posterous is great and fun, and I´m a fan. But when it comes down to it its all about the quality of your content, not about how fast you can get your content out to various micro-services or if you can post from your Iphone. I think (or hope) we will see a reaction where bloggers go back old school and actually think through what they write, that would be a welcome change... well, good old quality vs quantity I guess. - Peter Efland

That's just it. Technology moves forward, and if the old school way was flawless, mico-blogs would have been stillborn. The opposite has happened, babies everywhere, and Posterous might be Bam Bam. - professor daddyo

I would stay with tumblr :) - Arpit Kumar

I like Posterous a lot, but I'm not sure it brings enough to the table to get me off of Tumblr. - Brett Kelly

I signed up some time ago then I've not been using it. I love tumblr and I see duplicated features. Anyway people using a social network drives its success, not features! - Federico Bolsoman

posterous rocks and i like it...i use it to blog through my blackberry when i'm mobile. - Jim Gray

I created one a few days ago and I can't stop posting to it! It's so easy! - Jennifer Stocks

It's taken me a while to get round to using Posterous after setting up an account ages ago. We have started using it at work to log docs and messages in a big cross team project. It really comes into it's own as a collaboration tool. I have since started using my own one and it's pretty addictive! http://yellowbag.posterous.com/ - Jonathan Tanner

I'm loving Tumblr :) - Friendfeed's Francisco
