Cameron has just published a great article on adding your own post types in Tumblr:
“Tumblr’s recent update to version 3 of the service has made it possible to make your own post types with the custom theme tag TagsAsClasses and some fancy CSS, as I did with my review post-type.”
Proving that perhaps tumblr is far less a tool designed to regurgitate comment alone, rather it has embraced some pretty nifty features of late that open up a range of options for multiple types of content.
Not to belittle the Davidville and Tumblr crew, but it isn’t necessarily the technology itself that is important, rather it is how one makes best use of it that really illustrates it’s value.
The Tumblr engine is increasingly being exposed to users, the end result is some pretty smart stuff.
