Tumblr UI
4 March 2008I’ve been playing with Davidville’s Tumblr publishing application for a few weeks now. After discovering the site a few months ago right after it was launched, I set up and account and as usual, just let it sit.
Honestly, I’ve been hard at work. Really.
But that said, I finally started testing out the full breadth of the tools a few weeks ago and it’s so very well done. Simple, easy, egaging, and intuitive (well fairly). I suggest everyone check it out. Now I just need to find a way to publish to it from here, and vice versa. Integrate streams if you will. Which is the one thing that I love so much about it.
I tend to use Tumblr as more than just a blog publishing tool. I use it as an aggregate of my life online. A trend that’s seen popping up with Plaxo Pulse, Twitter & Facebook integration, etc. The idea that as social networks and social people we exist in many places, but our activities in those many places should be displayed and celebrated throughout. It’s useful obviously for marketing (as in “What’ this link from? Oh Del.icio.us? Cool. Sign me up) but also a great retention tool. Heck I use Twitter because it’s an easier Facebook. I don’t use Facebook anymore. Sorry guys. It’s just overwhelming.
That said, check out Tumblr.
