Goodbye Posterous

with 2 comments

I like to try new things and back in October I decided to try moving my blog off of WordPress. Initially I tried Tumblr, which was decent but didn’t have all the features I was looking for. Then I found Posterous and was generally pretty happy with having my blog there. It was free, fast, stable and had all the features I wanted initially. Then I started having issues; e-mailing a picture would result in 3 or 4 identical posts with only 1 post having a good copy of the picture. I also experienced occasional timeout issues when hitting my site but can’t really complain about that as it’s free.

I figured if I was moving back to WordPress I would take the opportunity to move everything over to jerephil.com, a domain name I registered about a year ago. I’ve been using jerephil as a username for the past two years or so and I have yet to find a site where the username is taken. So everything, except some of the posts I made on Posterous, is now located here. The important ones are done and I’ll be moving the pictures across as time allows.

  1. If you say ‘Jerephil’ aloud, it sounds like a type of medication for the elderly. :D

    This concludes my always-valuable commentary.
