Globalmindflow.net meets Tumblr

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

I recently found out about Tumblr, which I think of as an advanced Twitter: not only can you send short text messages, but also quickly post quotes, pictures, links, chats, and videos. All of these are displayed on your personal tumblelog. Where it gets really interesting I think is the feeds: you can aggregate up to 5 feeds in your tumblelog, and can then port all of your aggregated content to another site via embeddable JavaScript (Account > Extras > Embed your tumblelog).

You may have noticed that leeclemmer.com redirects (forwards) to lee.globalmindflow.net. Globalmindflow.net is a server account hosted by my brother Ian, and is actually hosting quite a few different sites as subdomains. Globalmindflow.net itself, however, is pretty stale and not maintained very often. What I’ve done now is embedded my tumblelog, which includes the feeds of a number of the subdomains. In other words, it’s more of an actual mindflow now with all this content being aggregated - aggregated thought.

What’s really useful is the tumblr button you can add to your browser, so whenever you want to post to the tumblelog straight up, it takes literally 10 seconds to post.

Check it out: globalmindflow.net!
