Archives

For me, I use tumblr to gather and bookmark online inspiration. There is this great function that visually archives your posts into a thumbnail library. I love this. Every tumblr template has a unique way of archiving, below is mine, check out a recent post from Jane about her archive. Oh, and if you tumble, hit me up.

Thanks for the link love? Isn't it lovely to see all that inspiration in one fell swoop - I'm kind of addicted to it!

This archive feature is the reason I started a tumblr... I absolutely love it.

Oh weird, I clicked the Tumbler link, and apparently I have an account... I don't ever remember signing up for one... and I even have three people following me... Weird!! So how do I get it to do what you did with the thumbnails and all...?

I've been wanting to create a personal blog for quite sometime now, but as of recently I've been torn between tumblr or wordpress. I have friends who use both and it looks like tumblr is mostly useful for single pictures, links, small amounts of copy.
Since you have quite the archive built up on it what are your thoughts of it? I'm pretty sure I'm going to make a tumblr account I just want to make sure what I use if for will be most beneficial for myself and will use tumblr to it's fullest potential, by posting the relevant content. ( I see it as a step in between a full blog and a twitter/fb update)

I JUST as in last night discovered Tumblr. Don't know where the heck I've been, it's awesome. I need to get started. Thanks so much for this post, you may not think of it as a "how-to" but it sure helps others learn how to use something new!!

I just started using Pinterest, and I like it even better than Tumblr. Have you tried it yet?

I just started following you on tumblr! I have been a reader on here for a year or so now and am excited to explore your tumblr happenings as well. I started my own tumblr a few months ago and am having fun with it.
