The Steve Rubel Stream

it makes complete sense, especially if you believe, as you do, that the social ecosystem will evolve. All of the digital Steve will be available, it will be in neater piles to sort through and search.

In terms of ease of use, who needs to mess around with resizing photos, getting flash audio players to work, etc, etc, etc

thanks for the tip.

I have been reading your posts on moving to Posterous with quite a bit of interest. I very much like the concept of seeing something, either online or IRL and simply making a quick post about it. Include a screenshot, or photo or even video. That's all pretty awesome.

I am a little unsure on your workflow though as it relates to this change, and would love to see some discussion to that point. How will you day go working with Twitter and FriendFeed? I guess you will flow most of your find through Posterous and out to FriendFeed and Twitter?

I always enjoyed your articles on working with Gmail as a central nervous system, looking forward to seeing some similar discussion with the move here. Good Luck.

I've been considering a move like this for a few weeks. I was a very early adopter of Posterous and the advancements they have made are pretty amazing.

I have been considering for many of the same reasons you state above. Their ability to handle anything on the fly and post it to where it needs to go.

Thanks for sharing your insight on this.

So, how did you get the domain name pointing to their service?

Easy http://blog.posterous.com/custom-domain-name-support-for

They did a very nice job of making the domain name and google analytics integration easy.

I moved to Tumblr for the same reason. Why did you choose Posterus? Have you looked at the services like Tarpipe? My question is how these services differ. I see little difference between Posterus and Tumblr. Tarpipe seems more unique in it acts like a Yahoo Pipes in reverse.

Thanks again Steve. I'm currently waiting for jamespoling.me to propegate and point to my posterous site. I'm keeping jamespoling.com up for archive sake (and in case I get cold feet) but I'm going to give it a go.

I'm trying something to this effect in my state house campaign in GA... what does it mean to be a candidate/elected official in the modern age... http://jimnichols.posterous.com/jimn2010-readers-email

Seamless integration.

Very Good.

I am now big fan of posterous. Specially custom domain, autopost, and just send/post from mail :)
One more thing is you can have in depth analysis from Google Analytics.
