WordPress vs. Posterous

But I had to.

This blog is about simple solutions, not complete control. The amount of extra meaning I could create with the control I had in WP just didn’t make up for the comlexity I had to manage.

We make trade-off like this one all the time. We give up something that we think we need to get more of what we really want. Giving up total control of my blog was painful, but the freedom to let someone else worry upgrades and plug-ins is worth it.And Posterous is very well put together.

What controls have you let go of?
