WordPress and Tumblr: Sweet, Sweet Integration

I may have started using [Tumblr](http://www.tumblr.net/) for little blogging quickies, but I really wanted to keep my regular [WordPress](http://www.wordpress.org) weblog for various reasons like my silly attachment to the software, the powerful features, and the many options that WordPress offers. I love this piece of software, but unfortunately it is _so_ feature-rich that I sometimes become all ambitious and want to post masterpieces (hence the no-post in recent times).

Instead of ditching WordPress or not trying tumblr, I’ve decided to integrate them using something called [ReBlog](http://www.reblog.org), which allows you to syndicate posts from rss feeds. Now, I’m sure this tool is used for evil on a daily basis by link farmers and spammers, but I ain’t one of ‘em. I’m just using this tool for its sweet little integration feature, which has made life a lot easier in terms of the brain power I had to expend to get the two weblogs talking to each other. If you’re not evil and bent on making the internet a more cluttered place full of junk, I recommend ReBlog to splice your different blogs together.

About

I’m a 29 year-old web designer, artist, gardener, mother-of-one, wife, and human being, living in the West Park area of Cleveland. Politically, I’d be classified as a flaming liberal. I’m one of those strange people that believes in free expression, human rights, keeping the planet around just a little bit longer, and allowing my kid to grow up to a peaceful society. In terms of spirituality, I’m Christian. I used to be Lutheran, now I’m just me.

I’ve been described as a hellion, strong-willed, stubborn, funny, loyal, and a number of things that are a little too blue to put on this page. In a different life I partied hard, drank like a fish, and cursed like a sailor. I still do a few of those things, but with more prudence. I have a fondness for black t-shirts and eyeliner, hairdye, jeans and workboots. I like to go barefoot when frostbite’s not a threat. I tend to be a little sarcastic.

I’m a recovering fundamentalist, a techno-junkie, a DIY-er and a research addict. I devour books as if they’re pints of Ben and Jerry’s. This sickens my spouse.

I have a number of websites including Burning River Studio and Bell Vance Art. I am a compulsive website builder. I love WordPress.

Distracted Mind is where I write down things that don’t belong anywhere else.
