Posturing From My New Chair
August 2, 2009
After months of sitting on my computer on a backless settee, I began to realize that my back has a spinal cord, and that it's made up of individual vertebrae.
But that's not what this is about. While my new chair does indeed improve my posture, this is a new posturing using Posterous.com. I am writing this email using Gmail, sending it to post@posterous.com and attaching the photo of my new chair. After I hit the send button, I sit back in my chair. I expect Posterous will:- Post this email and the photo to my Posterous blog http://socialgeek.posterous.com
- Post my photo to my Flickr photo stream
- Post my photo to my Picasa web albums
- Post this update to my Facebook account (I want to see how it does that, whether it just links, or uploads the photo, etc.)
- Post this email and photo to my WordPress.com blog – An Unquiet Mind
- Post this update to my Friendfeed, which will then tweet an update on Twitter as @SocialGeek
- Post this update as a tweet on Twitter as @Palsule
Just 1 Email. Now, let's see how it works!

Well I can certainly see the posting to your blog worked. But my comment doesn’t relate to that. I momentarily envied the space on your shelves. I believe that in my move over 2 years ago, my books reproduced. Despite adding a new book case, I have 7 unopened boxes (containing my favourite books, natch) and I have a few hundred books piled atop a shorter book case. When I see space, I feel sad for my books.
I actually stopped buying books a few years back because of that reason. Sometimes, I let the temptation get over me, but most times, I am able to resist.
Dozens of my books have disappeared after lending them.
When we furnished our new home in ’06, I wanted to make sure I had ample space for books. So far, so good.
I stopped buying two years ago too with a stray purchase here and there. But I never lend. And I never borrow. But I think there will never be ample space for books. That is all I buy. :-/
Hi,
I did not want to know about the posturing , but was struck by your shelf.
Nazar nikhal dijiye!

Thank you.
I don’t know whether you’re talking about the books in the shelf or the shelf itself, in which case, I should mention that it was made by my own uncle.
My grandfather used to teach carpentry in school and my uncle carried on his furniture business – so we get quality furniture made according to our own tastes.
Mahendra,
Cool indeed that one email can do all this!! But what are those audio cassettes still doing in the room of so “in tune” with leading-edge technologies
?

Arun,
Those audio cassettes contain a treasure-trove of music difficult, if not impossible, to get on CDs. Despite writing about How to Convert Audio Cassettes & LPs to MP3s, I still haven’t converted my own collection!

Maybe you need to buy a primer on human anatomy first!
