Don’t even get me started on this!
In the wider application of dropping the apostrophe, the “let’s just stop because we can’t be arsed to do x,y or z argument” has never been a winner with me. }:(

Theme designers: Notes are now available in...
We’re about to start rolling out a bunch of features focused on interaction between tumblelog authors and their readers. Post notes are going to be the glue for all of this interaction, so we’d like to ask all theme designers (and anyone with custom themes) to incorporate this new tag:
{PostNotes}
This will render the post’s notes (including reblogs and likes) on their permalink pages....
Tumblr Notes Plugin
On Friday I posted about loading Tumblr’s reblog “notes” via AJAX into a custom theme. I’ve had enough interest via email to release it as a plugin of sorts. Here’s a brief run-through of how to install it:

I’ll still be using bkkeepr, but it’s not a bad feature.

First, let me again apologize for taking action before publicly explaining these policy changes. Some internal confusion lead to five accounts being suspended prematurely.

A daily diary of Depression-era life, told on Twitter. Genny-spencer Late last year, my family found a line-a-day diary maintained by my great-aunt from 1937 to 1941. She was in her early teens, living on a small farm in rural Illinois with her two brothers, one of which was my grandfather. It’s a fascinating account of life in a bygone era, a time when my family’s only connections to...
Introducing Cufón - sIFR alternative | Chris... →
The game has been changed for those of us who are sick of the troublesome process of flash image replacement with tools such as sIFR. A new javascript-rendered alternative, Cufón, is geared to take the front-end design and development scene by storm.
Simo Kinnunen, the mastermind behind the project, had a few simple goals in mind for Cufón:

BookGlutton.com is basically a community for online book reading. The site promotes and encourages social interaction in reading and is ideal for book clubs. You can read though any of the books uploaded in full length or upload your own and share with others. One downside is the library is limited to public-domain works, which doesn’t offer a lot of recently published books. You can also join...
