Hello Tumblr
About a year ago I moved away from a privately hosted wordpress blog to a publicly hosted posterous blog. The move worked out ok, but twitter decided to pull the plug on Posterous last month. Since then, I have been looking around and trying to decide which blogging platform to use.
I played around with landocms which is an awesome idea. You basically host all of your content on dropbox in a specific directory structure and the blog pulls the data. Pretty neat, but the real blocker for me was still having to pay my hosting company to host the small amount of PHP needed for the front end.
Another thing I would love to do more is add more content, I feel with a traditional blogging platform that I had to write a lengthy post every time I had something to say, but with Tumblr it is easy just to post a photo, link, quote or post very quickly. So I am not promising anything, but I am hoping this enables me to think differently about content and offer more regular updates. Wish me luck!
