ZADI DIAZ: ZADI DIAZ - From Movable Type to Tumblr to Wordpress

Wordpress and Tumblr are two totally different things, as I'm sure you appreciate. Tumblr is almost throwaway in nature - quick bites here and there - sort of a halfway house between Twitter and Wordpress. I love Tumblr, but if you want to have a serious blog with bells and whistles, robustness, support, plugins and all that, then Wordpress (or MT or even Blogger) is the way to go.
Nice, thanks for that link. Yes, you're absolutely right. I like the ease and scrapbooking-ness of Tumblr... but it's just that darn archive....

I'm thinking about added some Tumblr to my website as well. But I think I will just another page to my website. For an example at the top of the website there will be some tabs where they can see my tumblr, plus see my blog. Plus subscribe to it too.
I dont think you have to redesign everything on your website... Plus what if you want to go back to it?
Although, I have found it hard to find (search) more people on tumblr than personal websites.. Plus some of the Tumblr websites, it seems that you can't comment on some of their posts. And I have found some cool add ons for tumblr to add on the comments.

Zadi, you should definetly have a look at the ScribeFire extension for Firefox! Blogging to wordpress almost can't be easier! Now there is increadible new features, check out http://www.scribefire.com/help/quickblogging/
And another hint for posting videos: Check out the vodpod.com Firefox extension, it's soo convenient. Just click one button in your toolbar + vodpod seeks the embed-code by itself and lets you post to your blog or to your vodpod-collection.
So, if you check it out anyway, then also check out my collection at http://natadd.vodpod.com ;-)

All that said, I like the archiving, and you can add a really decent search to Tumblr http://www.jacobd.com/post/22442355 , which you can try on my tumblelog: foomandoonian.net ;)
