New Posterous Blog
Testing, testing…
I am testing out both Tumblr and Posterous, as I have a new idea for a blog, and I want to see if either of these are the right tool for the job. There’s much to love about both of them, and yet they both have some limitations.
Right now, I’m blogging from Posterous, and it should auto-post to most of my other online social networks, as well as to my WordPress, Blogger and Tumblr blogs. (So, if you see this more than once, don’t hate me; I’m trying to work out the paths and any possible redundancies…).
Wish me luck!

A Nip and a Tuck
Well, it didn’t take long for my newly redesigned website and blog (which I unveiled in March) to get to the point where one more thin mint would have caused the whole thing to explode.
I started with a design with which I was quite content, but then added one more widget after another until my initial neat and clean and well-thought out design was starting to look pretty junky. WordPress and the bazillions of developers working madly away like little hamsters creating new gadgets and what-nots to “enhance” one’s blog — not to mention all the Web 2.0 doo-dads to connect with friends and communicate across apps — make it oh-so-easy to get out of control. I should know better.
