Twitter announced at the weekend that it was closing down Posterous, almost exactly a year after it bought the business.
It was pretty clear at the time that this was about hiring the talent behind Posterous rather than acquiring the service and its millions of users.
Nonetheless the news has caught people by surprise and left them looking for a new home for their blogs.
As was obvious from the masthead on my old site – Martin Warne’s posterous – it was hosted by Posterous. I asked on Twitter if people could recommend a new home and the answer that came back was “WordPress.”
So right now I am working to shift the site over to WordPress.com. Most of the content is now here, I just need to do some tweaking to the tags and categories, and then re-direct the forestgate.net domain to point at the new site.
Let me know what you think in the comments.
