#22Why do they need such money?
Build more stuff, Marketing, Back office support. Poking around with what you could do with email would be constructive. They nailed down email to blogs going so how about the other way around. For example, I'm starting to get a lot of magazines sent to me by email and I want them somewhere else so how about picking them up from email and placed to a magazine folder on the desktop automatically. Click on the magazine folder object sends you to the article.

Excellent idea. Would love that feature for the tons of email magazines I subscribe to.

#24I'm trying posterous right now for the first time. First impressions: * It got the possessive of my name, Peteris, wrong. If the name ends in -is (or -us), the possessive is Peteris’ not "Peteris’s posterous". (Rule 1 from "The Elements of Style".) * I am not sure why it needed me to validate my email, if I already sent the first mail from my mail and then signed up via the URL in the mail that came back. But it wasn…
The possessive thing actually varies according to stylebooks. The Chicago Manual of Style says to use 's in this circumstance (doesn't fall into one of its exceptions for when to omit the 2nd s), and the MLA Handbook says to always use 's for possessives of singular nouns.
And the Oxford Guide to Plain English (which I recommend) says that both are correct.

My biggest beef with Posterous's design is that they direct me to their front page too often. When I'm logged in, just take me to my blogs. How many times have I ever seen the front page of blogger?
Mine is that with ordinary text emails, it will make very ugly HTML code, like putting hard breaks instead of proper HTML paragraphs (even though it shouldn't be that hard to do, with properly formatted emails). I wouldn't care about that much, but when somebody looks at the site with unexpectedly large fonts (and not even very large, with common 67 columns paragraphs and default posterous themes, it happens quite too often), the browser will break lines sooner than the hard break, and then again at the next line, after few characters. That sort of sucks.

#27Huge congrats to the Posterous team. I'm a total convert after I started to use posterous to keep track of Startup related news in the Mission District in SF. Absolutely love the simplicity of the experience and can't wait to see what's next.
