So I don't care for WordPress (hosted or otherwise), and don't like the mobile theming options of Squarespace (read: there are no good ones).

Yeah, I could gin up my own stylesheet or do a variety of other things geeking around with it, but I really don't have time for that. I just want something hooked up to go with.

I looked at Posterous and tumblr, as many people have, and ultimately haven't made a decision yet.

The biggest advantage of tumblr: custom JavaScript-capable.

The biggest tumbler fail: everything starts with /post/123456/… I think even GeoCities allowed for better URLs than that.

So before I switch claylo.com to either posterous or tumblr, I'm going to experiment some more. I'll probably wind up consolidating posts from all those places in one spot when I settle on one.
