Totally awesome Tumblr news

As some of you may know (or not) I am a HUGE fan of Tumblr.

For those that have been living in Platos Cave on the lowest plane of existence,  Tumblr is a super-duper easy to use online publishing system that’s used to share cool things from the internetz with whoever cares to view it :)

The AWESOME FINDS section of this site is powered by Tumblr and the RSS feed on the right hand side feeds the latest posts from that page.

On to the reason for this post: Today, Tumblr announced the most requested feature of all time and I am delighted! I can now queue up posts upfront. That means a steadier flow of content on the site, less spamming of RSS feeders and most importantly, for me, easier to manage visibility to in the US both on Twitter (which these posts go to) and on Facebook (which pulls the latest RSS as well).I’ll be loading up the queue shortly so expect a constant stream of AWESOME from my tumblr.

All in all, a pretty rockin‘ day.

    True.

    They are getting there. I get hits from search to my Tumblr, so its definitely crawlable (is that even a word?!).

    What I am waiting for is for the bookmarklet (the only way I actually use Tumblr) to be updating with auto queuing features.
