Posterous, Loved by Guys

Posterous is running their switch campaign right now, and while I agree with it (I'm a recent convert and I like the service), I found their blog of testimonies kind of amusing. Apparently (white) guys (and a cat) are Posterous's core user base.

It's a good service and I suggest you try it out. I just don't find the switchto blog all that compelling.

Unrelated, but for some reason the main switch site doesn't yet list WordPress (or a few other ones they support):

Although they do support it if you create an account first and then use the "import" option:

I realize it's just a marketing campaign (although we're getting possibly 8? new services out of it), but it seems weird how they are doubling up on some services (Xanga, Tumblr), but not listing the ones they already offer on the switch page. I can only assume they will be listing Wordpress and Blogger on the switch site soon...
