I wonder who’s gonna come to this meetup…

Guys and girls and everyone in between, students, yuppies, oldies and the unemployed, if you love and enjoy tumblr™ and want to meet co-tumbleloggers then you are invited to the upcoming meet-up at the 28th day of the month at W Grill, Greenbelt, Makati. W Grill have reasonable prices for food and drinks (KKB po tayo ha. :)

FYI, there are no RSVP and reservations made at W Grill for the meet-up so, just walk in and find me, I’ll be wearing a tumblr name tag. Share this post, please. Thank you. See you there! :)

The Day Disqus Missed The Spam Comments

Seth of sethsimonds.com explained why he kicked off Disqus off his blog:

3. I want solid spam filtering. Disqus has a lot of work to do to bring its filter up to Akismet’s level. I turned off “reactions” weeks ago (imported comments from FriendFeed, tweets, etc) because Disqus failed to give life only to legitimate remarks. I’m not the only one with spam issues. Disqus seems to have a lot of trouble keeping spam off their very own blog.

At first it appears Disqus is wonderful, until your blog becomes older, and some of your posts become popular. You are now officially a target for comment spammers. Here’s one example:

I posted about “Smart Bro’s HSDPA Dongle Designs for UAAP and NCAA”, and commentator posted like:

Thanks man, just what I was looking for. Worked like a charm Thanks so much…

Okay, so what’s the relevance in that? And the author link is pointing to some bogus website. By the way, I deleted the comment.

Theme designers! You can now include liked posts in your themes.
Get instructions in the Theme Docs.
See it in action on garyvaynerchuk.com and Newsweek.
Try it on your own blog with The Atlantic and Papercut themes.

I guess I want to integrate this feature into deuts.org. Thinking about having a right sidebar here.

Storytlr will stop operating on December 31st 2009 →

The title says it all, we have decided to stop operating Storytlr in 10 weeks, on December 31st 2009. The reason is simple: our lives have moved on, kids were born, house were bought, new projects appeared and we don’t have time anymore to operate this service properly.

The Storytlr service would have otherwise been a great service. I may not have been able to fully utilize the service, but would have offered many alternatives. This is the problem with services like this without a clear monetization plan. Think about twitter, and now tumblr.

Tumblr tweets are called tumbledogs. These tumbledogs can be short blogs less than 140 characters

— Alan Liew on 5 Twitter-Like Microblogging Sites for Blog Traffic Building

What tumbledogs? What are you talking about? That’s the first time I heard about it. Googling for the term returns that same article at no. 3.

And what do you mean by less than 140 characters? You can post up to 140,000 characters at tumblr if you like!

Now testing: Upload photos in Text posts
Take it for a spin! Let us know if you catch anything acting funny.

Another welcome improvement from the tumblr theme. Not like improvements in disqus that drag you backward!

New with Posterous: Create you Own Custom Design Now →

What else can I ask for?

Now Posterous has finally offered full customization of the design of your Posterous site. It’s long overdue, but better late than never as they say.

Now that this feature is on, I wonder what else can I do with my long-asleep Posterous blog.

I should need to ask something, though, can I put my own ads in there?

I wonder now what will happen with my Tumblr vs. Posterous?
