Let's talk Tumblr Do you have one (if so, add it to the Wiki), what are your favorite Tumblrs, etc.[More:]I'm looking to beef up the ole' Dashboard. Oh, and I've just started updating my Tumblr.
I've been doing Baseball Card Hall of Fame lately and am having a pretty good time with it.

Perhaps someone could talk tumblr up a bit as I don't really have a clue what the fuss is about.

It's just another blog platform. I like the ease of use, particularly when it comes to blogging photos or videos, and how easy it makes it to read other Tumblrs as well as re-blogging their content.

Yeah. What is a tumblr?

The only one I keep in my RSS feed is Hungover Owls. (Which I think I've shared here before.)

HAHAHA, I love the hungover owl captions.

I just started one because it seems like an easy way to keep myself producing stuff in the unemployed downtime and maybe I can turn it into an online portfolio type thing. Today I found out that it doesn't do HTML natively (or I haven't found the setting for that yet) and that was annoying.

And I was watching you which is only funny if you watch The Vampire Diaries. And the emotional maturity of a 2 year old.

I can't believe I forgot about Hungover Owls.

I was totally going to post a shouting thread about the asshats at school but I think the rage has abated thanks to Hungover Owls.

Now if I can just keep from giggling at my desk when in theory I should be doing some semblance of work.

I've been sporadically posting to this one for a while now:

http://topxofalltime.tumblr.com/

And follow a few. Cortex's new one is a favourite, and I also really like this one!

Mostly Forbidden Zone almost singlehandedly justifies the existence of Tumblr (as well as knocking former #1 retro-blogger James Lileks down multiple pegs.

I really like Inspire Me Now. I reblog a lot of his posts.

I just do one for recipes I'm interested in.

Kosmosxipo is mine. The name's a common user name I use in various places on the Internet, and it comes from (possibly bad) Esperanto for "space ship." Basically, a personal tumblr where I post pictures, reposts, and it grabs the RSS feed from my talking animal fiction.

Some of my favorites are: fuckyeahmst3k and hipstermst3k.
Give Me Something to Read is always good.
I just discovered the Lisa Simpson Book Club.

I've been thinking about one just for sharing interesting things from Wikipedia, and more specifically my favorite Wikipedia search, "List of Defunct."

I have one for stuff I made, which was supposed to be a craft/garden/some cooking blog but seems to have turned into almost all food. Apparently I don't really make much other than soup and cake, which now that I think about it is okay with me.

CNTRL + W33D but that is a VERY NSFW gay weirdness blog that has like sexy smurfs and shit. It is not to everyone's taste but I enjoy hitting it every so often for a trip into the WTF subconscious.
