Tumblrs tend to treat design as an afterthought

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:00:21 -0500

Nearly every Tumblr blog is a clone with an unaltered theme that looks 100% identical to thousands of other blogs. It’s really odd when you think about it, considering how many Tumblr posts are about art/fonts/design/etc. This sort of thing makes sense on platforms like Livejournal, where all designs are notably vanilla to begin with. It’s baffling to see it on Tumblr, where themes are considerably more sophisticated. I’m constantly reading one friend’s Tumblr under the false assumption that I’m reading another’s. It’s a daily occurrence.

My blog might not be the prettiest thing in the world, but it’s mine. And that’s important to me. I’m surprised that few others seem to feel the same way.

Josh says: I think it’s because we’re all reading everyone else’s tumblr via the dashboard. I’m surprised you’re actually visiting sites. Maybe I should clean up my theme, shave, and make my bed just in case you decide to drop by my website :-)

“Likewise the federal prison system has proven itself fully capable of safely holding literally hundreds of convicted terrorists with no threat or danger to the surrounding community. We are confident that the government can preserve national security without resorting to sweeping and radical departures from an American constitutional tradition that has served us effectively for over two centuries.”

Josh says: Let’s get reasonable… these prisoners will be in a heavy-duty security prison. It’s not like we’re talking about Magneto, they don’t have mutant super powers. There’s nothing to be scared of here… moving on…

The National Parks

America’s Best Idea

EPISODE ONE: 1951–1890

The Scripture of Nature

Premieres Tonight on PBS

If you’re in Atlanta, the first episode is on GPB right now. It’s great.

Switched that channel in a heartbeat after I read this.

For a second, I thought that was an ad for the film SHUTTER ISLAND.

Josh says: if you missed the first two episodes on TV (perhaps because it premiered during Yom Kippur), you can catch up online at video.pbs.org

Eyeball rebrands PBS on-air, online, and in print this Fall 2009.

“PBS, one of the most highly respected brands in media, is unveiling a new multiplatform brand package this fall. In more than 600 elements that include promo opens and closes, lower thirds, video bumps for IDs and support messaging, Web elements, print templates and more, this collection uses live-action footage, contemporary colors and original music to showcase what PBS is all about - that PBS invites people from all walks of life to broaden their horizons, or, to “Be More.”

PBS stations will debut the new package in conjunction with the September 27 premiere of Ken Burns’s most recent film series, THE NATIONAL PARKS: AMERICA’S BEST IDEA. This immersive documentary takes people not only on a journey to our nation’s most beautiful places, but also on a tour through history to meet the people who dedicated their lives to ensuring these places would forever be available for everyone […]”
