...potentially fatal mistake... I'd withhold judgement until the dust settles. If this marketing campaign results in more active users for Posterous, from whatever source, then I think they would call it a success.

This whole 'Posterous vs everyone' reminds me of an Oscar Wilde quote -- The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.
