Tumblr, Inc. (formerly Davidville) introduced Tumblr 3.0 today. The 3.0 offering boasts “Over 400 new features, fixes, and improvements”.
Some highlights include:
I posted a few days ago about the tumble-hybrid being the perfect personal website format. This lead me to build my own theme for my family website (and now here) to utilize this publishing format.
I don’t believe I will be doing too much micropublishing. However, I hope this will free me up to post better content more frequently and make some more themes too.
Have a look around and let me know what you think. There may still be some things that look a little out of place. I am still ironing out some wrinkles, but feel free to let me know if you see any issues.
Tumblelogs are the punk rock of blogging.

Robert Ellis of Upstart Blogger is offering a free iPod Shuffle to individuals that refer traffic to his blog!
I decided I’d like to reward that, so I’m going to give some lucky person an iPod shuffle, just for the heck of it. Here’s how it works.
Mr. Ellis has gained a lot of traffic and fans through his WordPress and Pligg themes that he has made available to the public. If fact, in fact this site is currently running my modified version of Upstart Blogger Minim.
Robert is a great guy and I am willing to give him a link to his site; even if I don’t get the iPod. Robert if you read this, it doesn’t mean I want to be taken out of the running.
