Tumble-Hybrid A-Go-Go
September 8After months of saying ‘I’m going to do it’ I’ve finally made some alterations to jameswfrost.co.uk so it’ll act as a tumble-hybrid. That means it’s a combination of a normal blog (e.g. Wordpress-based) and a tumblelog (e.g. Tumblr-based). For me, it makes it easier to post short posts now and again, linking to pictures, videos, interesting articles, etc (and commenting on them) whilst at the same time still being able to write longer ‘proper’ articles as I did sporadically before.
For you, the reader, there should be more stuff to look at and read. Neat! If you’re not interested in seeing the things I stumble across as I look around the internet, you can view just the old-style articles (without the tumble-ness) in the articles section. There’s a feed of those available too. Planet SUCS now points at the articles feed (as I don’t want to fill it with tumble posts). If you currently only read this blog via Planet SUCS and you’d like to see the new tumble posts, then just subscribe to the main feed.
I still have a few tweaks to make here and there - posting digests of delicious links weekly, perhaps integrating Twitter somehow, but the basics are all in place. Enjoy!

Good to see that you will be updating again!
If you are interested in integrating Twitter you might find Twitter Tools to be a useful plugin (it’s what I use)
