Would anyone like to help out the community and be a part of an ubuntu tumblr? Tumblr is mini-blog. People can ask questions and you generally post shorter posts more frequently rather than long posts. If anyone has any thoughts let me know. Also, if interested send me your email so I can add you as an author. What do you think?

It's up now, http://ubuntuhelp.tumblr.com. I'm still waiting for some feedback before doing more stuff.

There are no apps for tumblr that I know of, except for a couple extensions in firefox, more people are used to twitter I guess... even though tumblr's been around almost as long as twitter. It's a little annoying to see nothing really going for tumblr because of that.

I didn't ask for apps. I was wondering what your thoughts are on making an ubuntu tumblr. This can help newbs and have tutorials on it from the forum in one place.

Then just search that every now and then? I just don't see the point anymore of a whole blog dedicated to ubuntu what with all these individuals blogging it.

Just wanted to say that I updated the url and that I'm disappointed nobody has responded. I won't bump this again

I wouldn't mind, that sounds sorta fun, I've actually been looking for people myself for a similar project.

Here's my blog if you want to take a look: http://daanish.tumblr.com

I tweeted you too by the way, just in case.

Might I suggest Grumblr (http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/10/grumblr-is-a-tumblr-desktop-app-ubuntu/)? I've had quite a lot of success with the app myself.

Grumblr is okay, but I prefer the web interface.

How long has it been out? I didn't know about it when I posted that way back.

since increased users often crash tumblrs servers I recommend doing a backup at soup.io

Maybe, I might switch it to wordpress if it gets popular, or at least buy a domain soon
