Much Content (may) Now be on da .tumblr.

Okay so I am currently experimenting with the tumblr interface/concept/community. So far I like it and do find it strangely easier to output there than here, mostly because I feel I need NO edits, even though I go to great lengths to not edit this thing as much as possible in effort to maintain its inherent interweb style. I tried "supplementing" this blog before with the ravingimp blogspot but that just got.... splintering and confusing. This is equally splintering and confusing at this point.

But there are some advantages to tumblr that I think can take Imp RavinG to the next level. At root, I do want this to evolve into a multiple author effort, with like minded imps raving on all manner of topics generally unimportant to spheres outside the TED (technology, entertainment, design) intellectual space. tumblr is designed with community in mind; it's an inherent and basically unavoidable element of blogging there. Here on blogger/blogspot, there have been feeble attempts at building community via "Followers" but it still requires a high degree of web surfing and inconvenient and tedious hunting to connect with other authors, to the extent that you might as well be navigating the uber-bloggosphere or trying to reach out to the clanny types on wordpress and, more notoriously, typepad.

Right now, my tumblr is branded and designed to be more personal to me and to not be very aesthetically linked to ImpRaving (it looks a great deal more like a streamlined version of ravingimp). I am still sorting out how this effects all my automatic social media updates; I thought ping.fm was finally my answer but tumblr seems to offer it all in-site.

And now I'm sick of talking about this. I'm trying tumblr, look at it or don't. My domain name won't be re-directing there anytime soon, but if I start feeling the groove over there, I'll look into integrating my feed from there onto this page or summat. We'll see. I'll see.
