Posterous – Content Curation and Content Sharing
In my first video Posterous Bookmarklet Set Up, I showed how to get a bookmarklet up to your bookmark menu bar in the new Posterous user face.
This allows you to access Posterous from the web page you are viewing if you find you want to share that web page with any number of sites you have configured on Posterous.

In the first video I made about Posterous,I showed how to set up a bookmarklet.
The Set Up
This is because a tutorial I watched showed how to do it in an older version and the new user interface is different.
But how do you set up Posterous?
Posterous – How To Set Up Posterous is a video that does just that.
It shows you how to create an account.
It makes sure that you know that what you use as a username will become your first Posterous “Space”.
A “Space” is a site. That is what Posterous calls a its proprietary web sites just like Squidoo calls its sites Lens.
No print description under the icons
I had a problem on both my iMac and my PC laptop. When I would go into my cPanel using the chrome browser, my cPanel would render with out print descriptions under the icons in the panel windows.
My cPanel felt very naked. Just icons to information about what they stood for.
So if fooled around clearing the cache and looking at the preferences in Chrome and just trying to figure out what could be causing the problem.
Things were OK in Firefox and Safari so I knew it wasn’t the cPanel.
What is Content Curation?
Content Curation is the act of discovering, gathering, and presenting digital content that surrounds specific subject matter. Though it is still considered a “buzz word” by many in the content world, content curation is now becoming a marketing staple for many companies with a successful online presence.
This is a great way to get your head around content curation.
Twitter Sign In
I read an interesting article about your twitter username and how you can change it without affecting your followers and your twitter account in general.
While I was reading it I thought how much easier it would have been to show the information in a video. It would have been much more complete and easy to understand.
So I decided to do a video about changing your username.
While doing the video I realized that the distinction between your username and your twitter site name were two different items controlled from two different places in your twitter account.
That is what this video is about.
Content marketing is one of the most important and more abstract areas of marketing to understand. The content marketing institute is a great site for information and learning about this “story telling” marketing process.
Here are some tips that are timeless that you should know about and follow in practicing best of breed content marketing.
Take a read and take it from there.
Stay well, stay with it and talk soon.
Posterous Bookmarklet – How To Set It Up
I was trying to figure out how to set up the Posterous Bookmarklet after watching a Challenge 2011 video and finally figured it out.
So I decided make this video about it.
Basically what you do is go to Posterous help and type in Bookmarklet.
The url is http://www.posterous/help/bookmarklet/ . Once three you click on the button on the upper right and drap the icon into your bookmark menu bar of which ever browser you are using.
I use Chrome.
And that’s it.
Once there if you find anything you want to forward to any number of platforms, be it twitter, facebook, your website and so on, you can do it by clicking the bookmark and filling in the post box that appears. ( I’ll do another video about that).
And so there you have it.
I hope this is helpful. Check out the video above. Don’t forget to “like”, tweet or +1 if you can. Many Thanks.
Stay well, stay with it, talk soon.
