What is Posterous?

 

 

 

Posterous lets you post things online fast using email. You email us at post@posterous.com and we reply

instantly with your new posterous blog.

If you can use email, you can have your own website to share thoughts and media with friends, family and

the world. You can attach any type of file and we'll post it along with the text of your email.photos, MP3's, documents and video (both links AND files).

We'll do smarter things for you.

If you attach one photo (of any size, even direct from your camera!), we'll resize it to a web-friendly size

and post it. If you attach more than one photo in the same message, we automatically create a good

looking image gallery.

Hint: Posterous is a great place to upload sound files of students and can be used to upload movie files, but remembe. . .our school Outlook email has a file size limit of 5MB, and since you post by email to Posterous, you have to watch your file size of attachments. Concerning videos:

 
What does Posterous do when I attach a video file to an email? They will transcode your video so that you can see it in a flash player right there in your browser. It will even play on an iPhone without flash. They take almost all video files you can think of, and they’ll host the file too, so you don't have to do any work at all. Posterous is THE easiest way to post a video online using email.
 
Good News! There is another way to upload to Posterous so that you do not have to email your video clips. Click here for handout on uploading through the web to your Posterous Blog.
