I can’t believe this. I’ve been saying it wrong for years. Years. I’ve incorrectly corrected clients, co-workers, friends, my wife…

Here it goes. I was wrong. Wrong! For the two of you out there reading this, I acknowledge you are reading a Posterous (päst(ə)rəs) blog. Posterous as in pre-posterous minus the “pre”. Like pasta with an “erous” at the end.

How many times did I say, “That makes no sense!”?

“Clearly the service is POST-erous. You’re POSTing on the web! Their home page has (used to have) a giant yellow POST-it note on it. Do you think that is a PÄST-it note?”, I would say.

I just finished watching a video on the new home page explaining Posterous Spaces and clearly, several times, the narrator said, päst(ə)rəs.

And yet… I’m typing this post in a form titled “Create a Post”.

Maybe it’s time to switch to tümblr?

Update March 24, 2012

You’re reading an Octopress blog! I wrote a post about it.
