“Every time someone clicks a Tumblr’s Archive button it costs Tumblr $3.98 in...”

I seriously...
poortaste:
Need to go through my entire Archive and Re-Tag everything so I can effectively start using Search / Tagged features on my tumblr.
I am not looking forward to that task.
If the ‘pot head’ has the initiave to do this, where does that put you?

tumblr is smartr.
saintnate:
One of the things that I really love about this network is that it really is a marketplace for intellectual discourse.
Even the most emotional threads have a markedly well thought-out approach, more so here than what I’ve seen in LJ, Blogger, Twitter, whatever else.
The sharing of ideas and experiences is what really sets Tumblr apart from the rest of the pack. I think it would be...

…Please add a ‘that’s hot’ button (Paris Hilton picture optional, not advised) for people’s pictures. That is all.
Agreed.

I think I am fascinated when angry people email you about how they deserve credit for their reblogs. Its rather funny…Im thinking, ” wow, that was dope…let’s reblog it” and you (the blogger) gets to see the reblog on the back end. But…sadly, when you dont actually go out of your way for the outward praise, you get a harassing email.
Here’s to bloggers who rip aholes out of other...

Tumblr issues...
craytonc:
I’ve been having a ton of problems with Tumblr the past few days, it’s being really slow (especially to load new post pages) and giving me a lot of “server not responding” errors.
Anyone else having any problems?
Yeah reblogging this post took a few minutes. Sucks the life out of me. I don’t even want to use tumblr when it hangs like this.
Paramore - Decode - High Quality
secondaryartifacts:
a higher quality Paramore moment. also in the wide. contrast and compare with the old way. this was done by embedding the youtube player with the fmt=18 flag in a text post. tumblr needs to address this. quickish.
I agree that Tumblr should address this promptly.

Oooh, good point about group account not being able to follow. I have some groups that I wish could follow users. Anyone got a script for that?
I’m the same way in terms of who/why/etc. on following.
Also, something that the script doesn’t / cannot consider is that group tumblrs cannot follow you back. I have a number of them myself and I follow a few of my own so I can see them in the dashboard. The script tells me they are not reciprocating, but I still feel the relationship is good! :-)
Interesting script Shawn. I could see how it could be useful.
Frankly, I follow quite a few people who I really don’t care if they follow me back. I just like ther content or thought process or something.

We’ve had a few weeks to observe “Likes” effects on Tumblr, and wanted to share some neat stats:
Last week you liked about 12,000 posts each day.
You’ve liked about 10% more posts each week since likes launched.
Since likes launched, reblogging is actually up about 10% to 35,000 reblogs each day.

Me, too.
Ditto. I’ve been trying to figure out what to do about this. I just want my dashboard to be, maybe, PG-13, both for work and family viewing, without having to unfollow truly interesting, smart people. I guess unfollow will have to be the solution for now and maybe keep a list of folks to add back when Tumblr gets a content-rating...
I just stumbled over the pipes search thing when I saw it in referrers to Shawnblog.com
I like that it searches non tumblr domains (of course).
Happy holidays to you as well! :-)
Re:Shawn
Oooh, good point. I still use the pipes one occasionally. But mostly I use the filter option on the dashboard of one of the ‘macrotumblrs’ I have (Follows just under 3,000) I call it “The Stream”.
Happy Holidays Shawn!
I don’t think the Ning search gets non tumblr.com domains though! :-)
I use the Ning group's search →
It is faster.
