I have been hosting my own Wordpress blog for a while now and have gotten a little tired of having to manage it. It offers great flexibility, but also requires me to keep up with updates of the software and the server it runs on. It really isn't something I want to do, given that there are some really good hosted solutions out there.

As a whole I am getting away from wanting to host run my own VPS and getting into managed hosts instead. Good solutions exist for the things I need to do and letting someone else who is an expert on system administration deal with that gives me more time to do the things that are important to me, namely writing code.

So, here I am running on Posterous. So far it has been a good experience. The migration from Wordpress was very simple and making posts via email is actually pretty handy. It is also a Rails application, which of course holds a special place in my heart.
