11/08/09 Back on tumblr

I’m back on tumblr now.  For a month or two I moved the site to github pages.  I liked the concept of my entire site being stored in a git repository and backed up on my laptop and iMac.  The problem is that it makes it 100x less accessible and I never posted anything.  This isn’t an issue with git but a testament to how easy tumblr makes it to post.

Plus tumblr now has a ridiculous amount of easy to swap out templates with their theme garden.  Also unlike most web services (github pages, google app engine) tumblr will actually give you an IP you can use for your domain.  This lets me put an A record on justinjas.com instead of being forced to use a subdomain with a CNAME record like www.justinjas.com.  Tumblr FTW.
