The TumbLucas

…but without spam, life would be very boring - wouldn’t it?

Anyway, half an hour ago I decided to import my Tumblr blog into my WordPress blog. This would help with my plans to alternate between Tumblr and my WordPress blog for posts and stuff, but something went horribly wrong.

Turns out, I had completely forgotten about my dlvr.it setup which took the RSS feed of my WordPress blog and published the new items to Tumblr. And being a machine, and a web machine at that, it wasn’t smart enough to realize what it was posting was already on the Tumblr blog.

Not only that, but each new post to the Tumblr blog got sent to Twitter and Facebook, causing mayhem and chaos and mad chainsaw-wielding chipmunks to wage war against my awesomeness.

It was a bloody war, but it’s over now, and I’d like to apologize for the little spam epidemic that went on ;) 

Here’s a little diagram: Import to LucasBlog > New content on LucasBlog is published on TumbLucas > New content on TumbLucas is published to Twitter and Facebook.

Anyway, it’s all cleaned up.
