The News Blog is Back

Sorry to anyone who tried to follow the old Wx.Ca News blog. (Was there anyone besides you, Corey?) I hadn't posted since a month or two after it was set up, and that was years ago. It used Blogger, but with the posts actually hosted on Wx.Ca. Since the last post, Blogger is now Google and uses Google accounts. I can't seem to resurrect my old Blogger ID. Oh well. Time to move on.
 
This time, I'm going to try a hosted service and a new cool one. posterous at www.posterous.com. Posting is just sending email. No arcane markups. Pick any email client you like, including Mail on a Mac or an iPhone. It lets me specify my own URL like news.wx.ca for reading the blog even though posterous is hosting everything. Photo albums by just including more than one photo in an email. It looks pretty good, except every posterous blog looks every other one. No theming that I can see.
 
Let's see what happens.

Hmmm. www.posterous.com automagically turned into a link, but not news.wx.ca. Looks like northern discrimination.

Well, there does seem to be northern discrimination happening, but not by posterous - by Apple. The Mac Mail program that submitted this post did the linking not posterous.
