Dan's Tech Tips:
Create A Simple Web Page From Email And Share It Within Seconds
Posterous is almost certainly the quickest way to create a web page and get it
online. Post a simple text message, or include additional content such as an
MP3 file or a picture. Unlike traditional blogging and publishing services,
such as Blogger or FaceBook, you don't even need to sign up for an account.
Think of something to say, then email it to:
www.post@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Within a few seconds, you'll receive a reply telling you the address of your
published page. Click on the link, and it's there for you (and the world) to
see, It really is that easy. Web publishing doesn't get easier, or quicker,
than this. If you want to show your holiday photos to family or colleagues, or
publish the agenda for your next club meeting, this is the simplest way to do
it. Initially your published page will be given a unique URL, albeit not a
particularly friendly or memorable one. It can be changed, just view the page
and click on the button to claim the account. You can then change the name (the
bit before posterous.com) to anything you like, so long as it isn't taken
already. And of course you can assign a password to the account too, so no one
else can continue contributing to it.
Posterous is clearly no substitute for a full-featured web publishing system
like Drupal, Joomla or WordPress. But nothing compares to it for speed. In the
time it takes to send an email, you could publish your message as a web page
instead. There are plenty of free places that you can publish content on the
web. Blogger, WordPress.com, MySpace, Facebook, and plenty more.
But for sheer simplicity, Posterous is definitely worth a look.
