Posterous Cofounder Garry Tan Steps Down, Heads To Y Combinator

Garry Tan, one of the cofounders of easy-to-use blogging service Posterous, is moving on from the company. Tan will be leaving to take a position at Y Combinator, where he will serve as a designer in residence. Posterous doesn't put much weight on titles, but Tan had a hand in the site's engineering, design, and product development. Posterous isn't taking off as quickly as its competitor Tumblr, but it has a solid audience and has recently released a neat Groups feature. Tan didn't elaborate much on his reasons for leaving, but says that it boils down to wanting to work with smaller teams, which he'll be able to do at Y Combinator (Posterous is now at around 13 employees). He also added that Posterous is going "gangbusters" and that he expects 2011 to be "really phenomenal".
