Tumblr - We’ll be back shortly
I cannot think of a more stylish servers overload page.
Jacob you must be behind this ;)
After four years of my serving as Tumblr’s lead developer, Tumblr’s technical management needs have evolved to require types of experience that I don’t have, and my independent career has offered a lot of opportunities that I haven’t had the time to take full advantage of.
While Tumblr’s…
I always been a strong believer that you must pursue your goals (and set new ones) in the pursuit of your own happiness. It doesn’t mean necessarily to always do more, on the contrary sometime is to do less, or taking a step back to take a step further.
I can only wish you the best in your new adventure Marco. It’s been a pleasure following you while you were creating the best blogging platform on earth at Tumblr. Your accomplishment is tremendous already and I can’t wait to see what’s coming up for you. I know as long as you keep reading in the digital format, that Instapaper, one of the most useful app in the world, would be part of your eminent future (at least for a good couple of years).
I wish you the best, warmly.

Today, Tumblr passed one BILLION posts!
I never imagined we would make it this far so quickly, and apparently neither did Jacob when he designed the About page.
The things you do with Tumblr continue to blow our minds. :)
Tumblr have made blogging an effortless thing to do. The only thing you need to think about is what matter, the writing.
The dashboard, post by email, post by phone, the iPhone, Android and Blackberry apps are simply one of the way to post to your blog, but nothing will ever beat their simple bookmarklet that do it all.
Thanks Tumblr for having made blogging a simple thing to do.
Over the last few years, I have unsubscribed from nearly every tech-news feed. I have never regretted the decision afterward, and I haven’t missed anything important.
Tech news needs help. Badly. It’s truly terrible.
I cannot agree more. Since I’m using the Tumblr platform to publish and also to follow the bloggers that I like, I stop going to my Netvibes page where all my tech news were. I find that everything that is important to know, in some ways, are reblogged and I end-up to know about it. The only thing I’m sorry about is not being able to follow RSS feeds of some bloggers that are not using Tumblr.
Jim Cloudman did a great addition to the post of Marco, you can read it here: The downfall of tech news?
The Tumblr Backup app
Don’t trust us, trust yourself. I like that. Your are the owner of your data, and should back-it up. And here’s the tool to do it on Tumblr. Backup your entire blog at the press of a single button.
I used it for a week now, and it is flawless. Thank you guys, your are the best. Everyone can learn from Ma.gnolia January 2009 total data lost.

A very interesting interview by Doree Shafrir:
By the time Mr. Karp was 19, a new word had entered the lexicon: “tumblelog,” which referred to short-form blogging.
Fascinated by this new form of blogging, Mr. Karp says he “kept waiting” for one of the established blog platform players to set up a platform for tumblelogging. When, after a year, that hadn’t happened, Mr. Karp decided to do it himself. (The current incarnation of Tumblr launched November 1st; a beta version launched a few months earlier.)
