Couple of Cool Things…

Well, my last post was about a nifty little gadget called Dragon Naturally Speaking, so I thought I’d continue the theme with another handy little service I’ve discovered.

It’s a wonderfully simple service called Posterous. It’s hard to describe the service unless you use it, but I’ll give it a go…

It allows you to share and create stuff over different areas of the web – for example: your blog(s), twitter, friendfeed, youtube, flickr etc. just by sending an email. The rest is taken care of at their end, which is great.

For me, it’s made blogging a little easier, but the main thing I’ve got from Posterous so far is speed. I can share something, put a few paragraphs of my thoughts next to it, and it appears as a blog post, on twitter and friendfeed as soon as I hit send. Marvellous stuff.

Link to it is www.Posterous.com

Here are a couple of handy tutorial videos courtesy of www.thirtydaychallenge.com

And this one talks about integrating it with Google Reader. Powerful stuff.

It’s a great time saver so far, but I’ll keep you posted on how things work out long-term.

Cheers,
