Justin Clark’s Lifestream

I love the Posterous interface. But many people are pushing for Posterous themes. They want more personalization options. But I dont think that the universal theme takes away from the value of the service but actually adds to it. Think about it. What does Posterous do really well? Simplicity. You can operate your blog without ever visiting the URL. I think too many options would detract from the platforms value. Also, I like that everyone on posterous has an identical ui, it makes it feel more like a social network. Finally adding too many features identical to other blogging services (particularly Tumblr) will render Posterous obsolete.
