Tumblr


Tumblr is good, very good. Having a play about with I can really appreciate the ease of which content can be added to your Tumblr blog. However it does have some issue's which may cause a bit of a problem. Firstly it is again possible to embed Tumblr into your website using feeds, but these cannot be formatted which is an issue.

There's also the issue of how it blogs, that is to say that while it does blog text and can be used to blog images it cannot be used to blog more than a single image and isn't designed to blog large text and image posts. This makes sense in it's scrap book theme but could cause serious problems for what I am going to be needing it for.


Adding posts:

Adding posts to your Tumblr is straight forward, I would even go as far as saying it's also the easiest system of blogging out there. With no bullshit to contend with it's a system that anyone could get to grips with following the shortest of tutorials, which fortunately Tumblr supplies.


Playing Around:

I thought I might be able to use this system still by creating a homepage on the Food Dreckly server and then skinning the Tumblr blog to look similar so that the homepage could link to the various Tumblr posts individually and then Tumblr would link back to the Food Dreckly homepage. This would allow for a very easy method of updating the website.
