So, I've been messing with the theming and this looks pretty good. Gotta get some branding in there and import the posts but this is all rather lovely and simple.

So after careful consideration we've decided to setup our blog for 2010 in Posterous. We'd been discussing the pros and cons of using either Drupal or Wordpress. Drupal, which runs most of our sites can quite easily run a blog on the side and Wordpress is pretty much the king of blogging platforms with a great UI and featureset. We definitely have the technical knowledge in-house to develop on either of these platforms.

So why Posterous? Well, for one it's accessible. Everyone in the company can post to it simply via a very clever bookmarklet or a quick e-mail. The posts are instantly propogated on other sites we post to like Twitter and there's very little that can go wrong with a post.

I've noticed that it also helps against writer's block. Posting something to Posterous feels just a bit more involved that writing a tweet because it's so simple and the e-mail integration means you can keep a post idea in the draft folder of the application you use every day versus having to log into a dedicated app. So viva Posterous. You guys keep going from strength to strenght while keeping it simple.
