Do you wish you could follow any blog in your dashboard?

superamit:

I frequently come across blogs (maybe once a week) that I find interesting, look for the follow button in the top-right corner, and am disappointed when it’s missing. (And then don’t follow the blog at all.)

I’m sick of Net News Wire and Google Reader. I want to read more things in the Tumblr dashboard.

Here’s the blog I found today. Not followed. Will probably never see again. :(

This is what happens when we outsource our brains too much.  Which, I can totally relate too.  My brain hasn’t had to remember anything for years!

  4. fredrik answered: No. Well, in reality yes, but I have a hard time catching up on all the tumblrs I’m following, adding outer blogs would be nerve wrecking.
  5. unfamiliar answered: No, the dashboard is already a mess without categories. I’m still hoping for a similar feature…
  6. mjduffy answered: yes
  7. charliepark answered: What’s the appeal of the Tumblr dashboard over Google Reader? If I like something enough to follow in one, I think the other one works, too.
  8. brit answered: YES

  11. shellen answered: That’s actually why I started the Google Reader project, it was much more lightweight and was intended to be a “follow this person” widget.
  12. lilzet answered: Might be great, but most of my feed reading nowadays suffers from (a) too much in one stream, and (b) poor support for tumblr-style posts.
  13. akormy answered: Yes yes yes!!! Blogger in particular but any platform…
  14. spaceminer answered: YES! I think about this daily. Get out of my brain, Amit! :)
  15. shawnblog answered: all your blog are belong to tumblr
  16. deleteyourself answered: No way, I wouldn’t be able to handle all of my RSS feeds in the dashboard stream
  17. breefield answered: That’s what I use RSS for….

  20. mariadiaz answered: yes! i want tumblr to add the ability to add RSS feeds, like livejournal. i would even pay extra for it.
  21. caterpillarcowboy answered: Funny, I _just_ wrote about that: caterpillarcowboy.com/p…
  22. gentleman answered: This happens to me all the time. I then send the blog owner some really nasty hate mail.
  23. aprilini answered: yep. and it’ll make me kinda sad when they don’t have a Follow button in the upper right side. But would it still be a tumblr experience?
  24. saha answered: Yes thanks.
