Twitter to shut down Posterous

Posterous one of the blogging services that was acquired by Twitter back in March last year, has announced that it will be shutting down its services on April 30.
The company made the announcement via a blog that reads out:

"Posterous launched in 2008. Our mission was to make it easier to share photos and connect with your social networks. Since joining Twitter almost one year ago, we've been able to continue that journey, building features to help you discover and share what's happening in the world - on an even larger scale.
On April 30th, we will turn off posterous.com and our mobile apps in order to focus 100% of our efforts on Twitter. This means that as of April 30, Posterous Spaces will no longer be available either to view or to edit"

I was thrilled to read this news, it is good that Blogger has no plans to shut down ;)v
