The Big Move

Since 2007, I’ve been a fan of Tumblr, I’ve used the hell out of it, syndicated my content to it, shared things on it, and well? It just didn’t grab me… ever. Their lack of community integration really did pull the rug out from under the service for me when I saw how simple it was to find others using the new, shiny, Posterous.

Thus, I’m going to evangelize Posterous, just as I did Twitter, and LOOK AT TWITTER NOW!! … Okay, I had nothing to do with Twitter’s success, but maybe with my help, and yours we can help Posterous take over the mini-blogging space, and just crush tired, old Tumblr.

In true “nrek” form, here’s the other side of the fence: Reasons you’ll love Tumblr ... and every single one, minus the themes is on Posterous, and Posterous just does it better, leaner, and cleaner. Posterous also has the huge one up I already mentioned. Community.

I don’t work for Posterous, I don’t even gain anything from this, but hey! I like to spread what I love and some people even know I’ve been doing that for years over at my other blog. So here’s a tweet to help spread the word:

I'll give you credit on this one. Posterous is a really good service and you convinced me to switch my focus from Tumblr to Posterous.

Yet, I'm not ready to throw out Tumblr to the wolves just yet. The have a good service as well and I like the content I've seen from the community that's there. Posterous will be my main focus but there is still room for Tumblr as well.

I can understand that. Personally - I never followed it, yea there was tons of content on the site, when/if I ever looked, but it never engaged me enough to seek content on a constant basis until it was "too late". Posterous is win now.
