I'm sorry to say but calling Posterous "Preposterous" isn't really a dig... the word was the inspiration for the current name and the reason they pronounce it like they do, with a short o instead of a long o. I remember some such tag line from the guys like "blogging made preposterously easy - Posterous." That said, yeah, they've obviously hit a nerve with their competitor bashing. And the sad thing is they didn't really need the bashing at all... just continue on the nice guy route with "if you're not happy, we're making it easy to move over to Posterous."
