Free Tumblelog with Tumblr

May 28th, 2007 | Web Design

Tumblr is a new form of short quick blog tool. You can use text, photo, quote, link, chat, or video. The point of it is that it’s just quick and simple. Kinda like Twitter but it’s still more of a blog and you can also add friends and have followers…well, yeah…again kinda like Twitter.

“To make a simple analogy: If blogs are journals, tumblelogs are scrapbooks.”

Anyway, they will basically host it or you can use a custom domain name. You do have to point your A record to “72.32.231.8″. I’m not sure if every host will have this available. If you want to set up a free subdomain to point to tumblr through webdesignstuff.com such as tumblog.webdesignstuff.com or whatever.webdesignstuff.com, then use the contact form and write down the subdomain you wish to use and once it’s set up, you’ll get an email and all you have to do is put it in your tumblr setting like this:

subdomain setting for tumblr

and you’ll be ready to tumble!!!!!!
