Wich is better Blogger or Tumblr?

Wich is better Blogger or Tumblr?

Asked by Emii about Programming Design


Ive been using Tumblr for about 6 months now and Ive loved it from the start. Up till now Ive only used it for my tumblelog and a few private groups for projects. But every time I posted on my regular blog I missed Tumblr. Thats what gave me a crazy thought: move my blog to Tumblr. Yes we can finally start proving all those people wrong who say Tumblr is just for microblogging. To get people moving to Tumblr though it needs to be able to transfer posts from other blogging services. I know of one tool to move from WordPress. But I havent seen anything to move from Blogger. After just a few evenings I hacked up a tool to import Blogger posts to Tumblr. Its written in PHP and the source is available in zip or tar.bz2 a git repo. Ive officially moved my entire blog now. : Unfortunately I didnt have a domain before so anyone wanting to follow it will have to update their links. To prevent this from happening ever again I got a domain plpatterns.com and began using FeedBurner for my feed. As for the comments Im actually glad to be rid of them. Id much rather have people reblog or email me with comments. I know it would be good for the community to make an importer to Disqus though to reduce the cost and fear of switching. Maybe Ill do that next month if someone else doesnt do it first. Just to give you guys a warning One unfortunate sideeffect of importing is that Following it blows out your Dashboard at the time when the posts were imported this past Sunday for this blog. I hope some people find this helpful. Update: I added tagging all imported posts in case people want to distinguish them from nonimported ones. I also changed the timeout to 30 minutes so no one should have problems importing lots of posts. Thanks for the feedback everyone

Tumblr. I just looked at what Blogger is and it looks more complicated already. Tumblr is really easy to use and its addictive for me at least. : Basically Tumblr is easier to use and its easy to edit it and download photos audio videos etc
