posterous, buzz, delicious, oh my!
While I once considered myself an internet guru, English 105 and Dr. Gabor's list of "writing spaces" we should try out certainly gave me a ran for my money. After clicking on every tab she offered and giving up on quite a few, I decided that the website posterous.com was for me. While it is similar to a blog, it is much easier to manage in terms of accessibility. I enjoyed playing around with the sight because it was a challenge for me to fully grasp while it still has aspects that I enjoy, such as being able to write freely. With that said, as far as I can see so far, I do consider this site a writing space. It gives users a chance to email in their thoughts, stories, pictures, quotes, lyrics, etc. at any given moment and share them with the cyber world. Any site that I don't need to be at a computer for and can email from my phone is right up my alley. Never did I think the internet would get more user friendly and of course, I was wrong.

ReplyDeleteGood choice!
One prob: the link to your blog on our class Blackboard site seems to have an error in it. Can you check on it, please? I had to navigate through Jana's blog to get to yours.

I'm going to be reviewing "Posterous" too! Do you think that because it's so easily accessible that it will be flooded with b.s.? Also, I mentioned in my comment to Dominga's blog, are you going to have a theme in your entries? Because it's not categorized, you can write or link to anything/any subject, which is fun and interesting, but I think the diversity can be a little intimidating... like if I write a post about my dating life, and someone else writes a post about world hunger... I kind of feel more pressure to be meaningful as opposed to writing a normal blog or writing on my facebook. What do you think?
