Thingamablog

Just found this cool new blogging software. Way, way easy to use — perfect for simple sites or blogs where you don’t need or want a lot of bells and whistles. You load onto your hard drive, then publish via ftp to your web site. It’s basically an early version of Movable Type — and there’s nothing wrong with that!

Tumblr

Tumblr is a quick and easy blog tool that is best used for short clips from web browsing that you want to share.

Signing up and starting a blog is a breeze. Posting text, audio, video and links couldn’t be more hassle-free and certainly requires a minimum of technical expertise — although more advanced features and options are available.

Once using Tumblr, you can join Groups of users (I’ll talk about this in a later post), add other users to your “follow” list, where their Tumblrs can be viewed on your Tumbler “dashboard” page.

The coolest thing is that your Tumblr blog can be accessed not just on the web in the traditional browser (so funny — browsers are now “traditional”), but via RSS readers, mobile phones, mp3 players, etc. Your little blog can have a big impact, so sign up and start adding your voice and views to the wonderful world of new media!
