Just launched: life.rscottjones.com
I just finished off setting up a custom domain for my tumblelog. After playing around with some of the various domain names I’ve been hoarding, I decided to keep it simple and create a subdomain on rscottjones.com. The first thing that came to mind in picking a subdomain name was the word life, as the tumblelog really aggregates my online life…from stuff I’ve created like blog posts, flickr photos, and twitter updates to the things I’ve consumed, like sites I’ve bookmarked and feeds I’ve shared. So, “life” made sense.
There are several feeds that haven’t been updating through tumblr, due to their asinine 5 feed limit, though I sent a formal request for an additional feed allowance. We’ll see what response I get.
Finally, I also briefly shopped around for a new tumblr theme. I found a couple that I liked and installed them, but never did a good job of displaying some of my shared Reader items, so I had to switch back to a standard theme.
I’ve also created a friendfeed account, and will contemplate the various advantages of tumblr vs friendfeed over the coming months.
