Tumblr-ing In
I found out about Tumblr a little while ago, and decided recently to try and incorporate it into this website. Tumblr is an application that allows you to “micro-blog”, or as it has now been dubbed, tumblelog.
A tumblelog (or tlog) is a variation of a blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, tumblelogs are frequently used to share the author’s creations, discoveries, or experiences while providing little or no commentary. (source: wikipedia)
Or, as I like to think about it, a tumblelog is an aggregator of glorified IM status messages. I have decided to give tumblelogging a try, and set up a tumblr account, the RSS feed of which feeds into my website and can be viewed at the Tumblr tab.
You should expect my tumblelog to contain quite a few little posts; whereas my main blog will remain as is, giving longer but less frequent posts. For your RSS feedreaders out there, the feed to the main blog will remain the same. If you’d like to subscribe to my tumblr feed, you can so by adding this link to your feedreader of choice.
