creating a tumblog

After a few conversations with @zzgavin, I've come to the conclusion
that there is a place for a tumblog in the toolkit of those who like
to post content onto the web. There are often pieces of content that I
want to call out, but don't have either the time or the interest to
write a longer blog post about. For a while I thought that would be a
good use of Twitter, but in the end that type of behaviour just
pollutes your twitter feed. Indeed, posting a link to an image is
never as immediate as posting the image itself.

This blog will remain a repository when I want to say something
coherent that is about 140 characters. My twitter feed will continue
to respond to the question of what it is that I am doing, combined
with it's use as a lightweight communication network. My tumblelog
will henceforth be an online digital clipboard of links, quotes and
images that tickle my fancy.
