Both new features seem to work very smoothly, which is really good. Sometime it might be nice to have an RSS feed on the search results.

2 great new features and in such a short period of time. I applaud Garry and Sachin for the 25 hours days they put into this great site. Keep it up guys! You can always rest when you die, I guess! Just make sure that doesn't happen anytime soon! Cheers!

@Andy, great idea re: RSS feeds. It's on my todo to add RSS feeds for both My Subscriptions and for searches.

@Nam, thanks for the support bro.

@T, yes. Naps are the best. =)

Hi, guys, just started with Posterous to check the possibilities to be a backchannel in a conference. It looks great, but I really miss the tagging feature, which is a big issue to bloggers that can be tracked in technorati. This feature would allow us to follow a unique tag created specifically to the conference, meaning that everybody who has a posterous blog and use the tag, we can aggregate in technorati. Is it a possibility soon?

I've been discussing it in my blog Explorations.

BTW, just wanted to add that the fact that posterous knows to take a link to a graphic and embed it as a graphic is very cool.

Will there be the ability to change templates and organize blog posts by months on the right hand side?

can we have a link to add ourselves to the comment emailing thread? There's no way to follow the comment if you forgot to check the "Email me" box

Good idea. A "follow comments" feature could be useful.

Gary would really like it if we had some way to have a site meter or to embed something like that so I could see who's snooping around.

Bill, good idea. We definitely want to roll out analytics for people's posterous sites so they can know where their traffic is coming from.
