Since the introduction of Spaces, users questioned whether or not we would continue supporting bloggers and blogging in general. Rest assured that your Space can still be used as a blog and we intend to stay true to being the the easiest way to share publicly or privately!

Just in time for the Blogworld Expo in Los Angeles we are happy to announce two new tools that will help our strong community of bloggers: Zemanta and Blogsy.

Constantly improving, check out what's new with Posterous Spaces!

Posterous Spaces

Hi ,

It's been a month since we've launched Posterous Spaces and the team is still hard at work constantly improving the service. We thought we'd share some of the highlights of the changes we've made in the past few weeks:


Improvements across the board - Post/comment moderation, better post list views and Internet Explorer 8 and 9 support

  • Comments and posts waiting for your approval are now easily accessible in your Dashboard. Approve and delete individually or all at once
  • You can now see more of your posts and have faster access to your Space settings
  • Internet Explorer users - sorry for the late invitation, but IE8/IE9 is now fully supported


Represent Yourself: A new portfolio theme designed by HBO's TrueBlood actress Janina Gavankar

The young TrueBlood actress believes that actors (and everyone else) should be able to represent themselves online. What better way to share than with Posterous Spaces? Janina designed the Actor Theme letting anyone be a sharing star.


Need help finding Inspiration on your next Space?

Check out our Inspiration Center or learn how our newest themes can be used for your photography portfolio, vacation photo album, classroom, or club.


Have you created your first Private Space yet?

We put the Spotlight on illustrator Paul Shipper and take an in-depth look at how he uses multiple private and public Spaces to share the right content with the right people.

Posterous Spotlight: All That Inspires Me

Posted about 18 hours ago by Rb_thumb Ryan Brown to The Official Posterous Posterous

Like this post 8

Allthatinspiresme

Keith Stoeckeler is a New Yorker making things in advertising. He's also a self-proclaimed branding and packaging geek, typeface admirer, music connoisseur, art supporter, dog lover, cheeseburger addict and wannabe foodie.

What's the story behind starting this allthatinspires.me?
I started  roughly a year ago when I needed a place to house things I found that I wanted to reference later. Case studies, great advertising work, photography, anything I liked and thought was cool. Posterous enabled me to go back and search for things when I needed to. 

Who has been your greatest inspiration?
This is a hard question to answer. In fact, I can't distill it down to one thing, and certainly not one person. I find inspiration in so many things. People, music, art, photography... it's why allthatinspires.me encompasses so much. 

What gave you the idea of letting others contribute to your blog?
I had to go out of town, and I thought it would be fun to have friends of mine submit material for the days I was going to be traveling. It was such a great thing to see what others thought was inspiring. All That Inspires Me started with the "me" being myself, but now with Guest Posts the "me" changes to the person writing the post, and I like how the blog has evolved.

What are some of your all time favorite posts?
The 10 Canine Commandments is my most viewed post, and I'm really happy about that.

The greatest wedding invite i have seen is my second most viewed post, and for good reason.

This just makes me laugh, so of course it's one of my favorites.

Other Posterous Examples to check out:

freerange1201 - ideas. advertising. culture. inspiration. 

deko.lt effects lab - A CG artist from Lithuania resolving the difference between challenging technology and inspiring the art.

Roam. - An artist whose work speaks for itself.

Who's on Posterous? Find out with Friend Finder.

Posted 1 day ago by Rpheadshot_thumb Rich Pearson to The Official Posterous Posterous

Your friends are brilliant. They’re fun and creative. They have a lot to talk about. And many of them say it on Posterous. But until now, it’s been hard to find them. Today, we’re fixing that by introducing Friend Finder, a new feature that makes it easy to enjoy posts from your friends.

Blog_find_friends_alt
Friend Finder allows you to quickly find your Twitter and Facebook friends and always get their posts. You can choose to receive the full content of their posts -- newsletter style -- via email, or if you prefer to read online on our new Reader.

Blog_image_600_following

Following your friends on Posterous gives you direct access to what they share publicly - their awesome photo galleries, hilarious rants and quick snapshots.  It’s your fast track to the best content, a way to start conversations, or just give some quick feedback with a 'Like'.

Launch Friend Finder and you’ll start to see some familiar faces and topics. If their account is setup to receive notifications, they’ll even receive an email letting them know you’ve followed them so they can follow you back.
