Jenn’s posterous

I got this from Mashable, and am flabbergasted.

Posterous is a site that allows you to create a blog by simply e-mailing your first post to the site, which immediately returns your e-mail with a link to your new blog, where you'll be given very simple instructions for setting it up however you wish.

After that, you can add subscribers, set a password (optional), and customize your domain. Then, you can continue to post by e-mail, or using a browser bookmark from pretty much anywhere on the web, or, you can share your blog posts to any of the more popular social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, etc.,) or to your other blogs (Wordpress, Blogger, Typepad, etc.) You (and your approved subscribers) can edit your posts in html or WYSIWYG view.

It is really very simple, and easy to use. I set up a test blog in less than five minutes, just to check it out (here) You can even track your stats on this new blog. It doesn't yet have the ability to customize the appearance that some other blogging software has, but makes up for this providing a fully-functioning, interactive, "ready to go" blog that is also a social network in (literally) minutes.

See some examples, here, or try it yourself, here.
