Why Tumblr is kicking Posterous’s ass
[…]
The answer is as easy as it is counter-intuitive: Tumblr is a New York company and Posterous is a Silicon Valley company.
Or, to put it another way: Posterous is an engineered product, while Tumblr is a designed product.
Posterous is extremely well engineered. There’s nothing wrong with it. Every single thing about it is well thought out. But it’s not just that it’s less pretty (though it is). It’s just not designed as well as Tumblr is.
Look at Tumblr’s landing page:
That’s it. Sign up is dead simple. Can you imagine the conversion rates they get out of that page? Moreover, they have one of the best taglines of any service: the easiest way to blog. What else is there to explain? They don’t brag about features like “like”, “reblog” or (ugh) “tumblarity.” Tumblr is the easiest way to blog. Anyone, your mother included, can understand that.
Meanwhile, look at Posterous.

I agree on the landing/sign up page design.
I was a Tumblr user before deciding to investigate what the hell Posterous meant with blog by e-mail, and why was it something to brag about.
What made me try, or switch to Posterous wasn’t the ability to post by e-mail – because that didn’t even sound smarter than the dedicated forms Tumblr uses – but getting bored with Tumblr’s ways. From my experience there were 10 big Tumblr celebreties and all the rest just reblogged their vintage pictures or whatever. Besides that, the lack of built in comment system just made it feel pointless. I never understood the appeal of a huge list of “likes” under a post, and eventual reblogs. There was no real feedback.
While retweet may work for those 140 character snippets on Twitter, browsing and skipping repeated pictures through your homepage really got old.
I hope Posterous redesigns it’s landing page because really, as well pointed by the author of the post above, it may be their biggest setback.

The third and the seventh
A FULL-CG animated piece that tries to illustrate architecture art across a photographic point of view where main subjects are already-built spaces. Sometimes in an abstract way. Sometimes surreal.
Beautiful movie.
Apple(does)care
It’s been a month since I complaned about the iPhone’s moister sticker’s unreliability here on my “Honest customer vs unreliable moisture sticker”. In fact that was a copy of an e-mail I sent to Steve Jobs (or to what everyone believes to be his e-mail address).

Honest customer vs unreliable moisture sticker
Dear Steve Jobs,
I went to Vodafone complaining about dust settled in between the glass and the screen of my iPhone. This is a huge barrier when it’s sunny outside. You have to struggle to see the screen besides the dust.I thought they were going to just open up the phone and clean it up. What is my surprise when they come saying the moisture sensure had been activated so they (or Apple) couldn’t honor the warranty and trade my iPhone for a new one so I would have to pay 217€ upfront to get a new one. This is my first bad customer experience with Apple since I became your loyal customer 5 years ago. I’ve bought 6 macs and have been (as we all have) responsible for the sale of 15 or twenty other inside my circle of friends and family. It bugs me to no end to be treated as a liar by Apple, and having you not honoring the warranty when the complaint has nothing to do with moisture in the first place. My iPhone has dust settled in the screen! It, otherwise works perfectly! It’s a 600€ equipment, and the warranty is subjected to this ultra senstitive fraud of a moisture sticker!? I’ve seen 3 friends’ iPhones and they all had the moisture sensor activated, without being anywhere near water. So, how can I get some human treatment, and not this blind judgement based on a unreliable sticker that get’s activated with normal usage? Best regardsMiguel de Oliveira
