I’ve been procrastinating moving this blog to Disqus… and today I’ve finally taken the plunge.
It took 5 minutes to setup and a half hour to sync my existing comments – which was what I was worried about. It even maintained the nested comment structure in place on existing comments – I didn’t expect that.
Thinking about switching? You should.

Today I moved my personal blog to Posterous from WordPress. Why, you ask, would a WordPress lover like myself do that… Here’s why.
1. I don’t want to manage YAWS (yet another wordpress site)
2. Posterous makes it too easy not to post
3. Posterous cross-posts to my other networks making it similar to Ping.fm
4. I can have a custom domain and run Google Analytics
5. I don’t want to have to think about it – and Posterous solves that problem marvelously
Why not Tumblr? I went back and forth on this for a few days and just decided to go with Posterous for the simplicity + cross posting feature.
What can you expect there? Random pictures, funny stuff, personal ramblings, etc…

To put this in context – Apple is releasing their new OS Snow Leopard for $29. There are no other versions – just the OS for $29. Okay.
Now you’d think Microsoft would have learned from the marketing debacle that was Vista. Here’s the pricing info for Windows 7, announced today.
These estimated retail prices for upgrade packaged retail product of Windows 7 in the U.S. are:
- Windows 7 Home Premium (Upgrade): $119.99
- Windows 7 Professional (Upgrade): $199.99
- Windows 7 Ultimate (Upgrade): $219.99
And the estimated retail prices for full packaged retail product of Windows 7 in the U.S. are:
- Windows 7 Home Premium (Full): $199.99
- Windows 7 Professional (Full): $299.99
- Windows 7 Ultimate (Full): $319.99
Confused yet? So am I.
I have a MacBook and a PC. I’ll definitely be upgrading to Snow Leopard. But there is no way I am $220 to upgrade my Vista Ultimate machine to Windows 7 Ultimate – if that’s even the right upgrade path. But if you want to – it will be available on October 22!
Oh Microsoft haven’t you figured out that less is more? Why so many choices? At least the case is easy to open.
