Having several blogs can be a bit hard to maintain, and micro blogging services like Posterous and Tumblr provide a quicker way to post content to the web. However, WordPress has added features which are similar to Posterous, in the form of posting by email to WordPress.com blogs.
If you have started using that feature and are looking to import data from your old Posterous blog to your WordPress.com blog, you will now be able to do it using the Posterous importer. To import content from your Posterous blog to WordPress, login to your dashboard and go to Tools -> Import, click on the link for Posterous importer to being the process of importing data to your WordPress.com blog.
More info and details at the Official WordPress.com blog.
Fantastic! 2 questions though…
1) What happens to all my posterous subscribers and contributors? do the automatically become subscribers to my WP
2) Are there any TOS differences between the two to be careful of?
3) I’d love to add one of my posterous sites to my http://bizsetup.wordpress.com blog – BUT does the import overwrite my current WP content or add to it?
Can you not get the data into csv file instead and use a plugin like this…
