I’ve spent the last month or so on what we flickr rockstars have all, in regards to our respective deadlines and dramas and to-do lists, been referring to as Getting Important Things DONE. What this means, of course, is that I’ve been distracting myself by spending far too much time browsing the internetS and overburdening my firefox browser with the number of tabs I keep open at one time. (The other day, I had 86 tabs open in one window. It was slightly ridiculous.)
I would share all those links and things with you here on the weblog – as I do once in a while – except I’m half-afraid Ayan will come along and call it “fake updates,” as he is wont to do. Plus, I don’t like cluttering the main column with links (that’s what the writing’s for), and I can’t figure out a way to properly share it all on the sidebar without jacking up the careful placement of everything else that’s already there.
SO. I’ve created an account for

I know a pile of LUSH when I see it!! :)
fake updates are better than no updates, i think.
and tumblr’s pretty great. ^_^
maisnon,
haha i’m glad someone knows! i couldn’t remember the name of the store when i posted the photos to flickr, so there’s quite an interesting conversation going on here. can you imagine all the glitter you’d have on your body after using this?!
asad,
oh, i know. tumblr’s quite rocking so far, and i’ve been having fun stalking you on there. =) love your bright, bright color scheme, yaara! also, the exclamation point in your log’s name. it makes me happy.
Thanks for sharing tumblr and i am already there – Checking its interface and posting stuff.
Although, I already use Google Reader and i am in love with its “Friends’ shared items”.

But i am still going to try tumblr. And its seems very nifty and uber easy to use. My only concern is that i am already all over the place and have various accounts to share stuff (flickr, facebook) and it’ll give me another account and another password to remember.
oh the old age cometh!
what the hell woman, i have things to do. i cannot have you going around collecting links and making me waste time. i hate you.
wow, tumblr looks really great. and there’s an RSS!! awesome! more ways to stalk you, my dear… ;)
you forgot to tell them it was MY bright idea. :-P
heh
hey thanks =) i pretty much went with my first instincts when i was picking the colours. it ended up absurdly bright, and i wasn’t sure if it worked, or if it induced seizures. =/
and, yeah, exclamation marks make me happy too!
Hey there, this is a real nice, real update!
That picture looks amazing! By the way, I never new about tumblr–it is a cool concept. Thanks for sharing :)
Adding your Tumblr feed STAT. I’ve been eyeballing Tumblr for awhile and spent a chunk of time yesterday surfing around there. LOVE the look of those tumblelogs…I may end up there yet…big changes afoot (in all parts of my life)… Can’t wait to see what kind of juicy links you’ve got there.
How do you keep track of 86 tabs at one time. You must share with me your secret.
Ooh! Tumbir is awesome. Yay, something else to keep me occupied at work. Thanks for sharing Yaz =)
so glad you guys are enjoying tumblr! =)
i am, too – it’s definitely cut down on the number of tabs i have open at one time. highfive!
and, fathima’s disgruntlement notwithstanding, i know you ALL have SO MUCH time to spend browsing the internetS. get to it.
PS: HMan, esstop with your random ad-libbing; not everything is about you. *sigh* actually, i learned about tumblr from asad, who has rocking taste in music.
yes and i think asad should enable comments
