Half a day of Posterous
First of all, I got the idea of Posterous a bit backward: I sort of thought autoposting would aggregate, rather than disperse my posts.On the other hand, this maynot be such a bad thing, that it does not aggregate.The site feels a bit less refined than, say, Tumblr or Twitter.
