Posterous seems to fit the life blogging model much better than wordpress.  You can send in posts via email and get stuff up quickly with little friction.

I’m going to keep all my work and development related stuff here.  It makes sense because blogging about that stuff takes a bit more time, so I don’t mind sitting down in front of the computer to write a long post regarding that stuff.

” On September 3, 1967, at 04.50 in the morning, the traffic everywhere in Sweden was directed over to the right side of the road and stopped. Everything stood absolutely still for 10 minutes, and at 05.00, when it started again, all road users in Sweden from heavy trucks to cyclists were already on the right side of the road, and they have stayed there since.”

For some reason this seems so totally unbelievable to me, I don’t doubt the accuracy of wikipedia but just think about what that kind of thing would entail!

It’s not as though the main paper is going to this format, i think that’s still years away but this is a really good step in the right direction if you ask me. I wonder if any other major newspapers are doing this around the world?
