Nerd update: Tumblelog!
March 11th, 2007
Found tumblr thanks to Lifehacker (just when I was about to ditch your RSS feed, you go and make yourself useful). I’ve been looking for a good, easy way to set up a tumblelog for a while, and there we go. Mine’s located at jeffgreco.tumblr.com, though you can find it at tumble.jeffgreco.com as well.
It’s a cool site - twitterish in its simplicity and flexibility. I also finally found a use for Yahoo’s much ballyhooed feed remixer Pipes in my tumblelog: I wanted to integrate my Digg and del.icio.us feeds into the tumblr, but I wanted them labeled as such. A little Piping around, and voila, it worked. Cool stuff.
I envision using the Tumblelog in a way that I never got the Around the Net section to really work in the last incarnation of this site - random thoughts and tidbits here and there. Not to mention stupid insightful comments by my pal Patrick McCarthy.
