Last night, a collective cry of joy erupted from the internet when India.Arie took to Twitter to confirm that she indeed had new music ready and that the first track to be released would be “Cocoa Butter.” For India.Arie fans, her return has been a long time coming, and after making that announcement she didn’t make them endure much more waiting before giving them their first listen. Barely able to contain her excitement about the song and her forthcoming album, SongVersation, India.Arie tweeted, “its been a LONG! LONG! road here #COCOABUTTER by @_SHANNONSANDERS and ME!” Singing, “your love is like cocoa butter on my heart,” she praises the healing and protective benefits of a love that has smoothed over her emotional scars. If you’re overexposed and in need of a little restoration, India.Arie’s got the musical salve for your soul.

Posterous Spaces

Hi pepi551feta,

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.

Right now and over the next couple months until April 30th, you can download all of your Posterous Spaces including your photos, videos, and documents.

Here are the steps:

If you want to move your site to another service, WordPress and Squarespace offer importers that can move all of your content over to either service. Just remember: you need to back up your Spaces by April 30.

We’d like to thank the millions of Posterous users who have supported us on our incredible journey. We hope to provide you with as easy a transition as possible, and look forward to seeing you on Twitter. Thank you.

Sachin Agarwal, Founder and CEO
