I didn't attack the feature, I said they bootstrapped their theme launch with the tumblr themes. That isn't attacking.
I simply meant they lent on the pre existing tumblr community to boost their own offerings - which was genius.
I do think to do that, and for Tumblr to nod or whatever, and then to do this, seems, IMHO a mis-step.
- rantfoil 16y agoActually on day one every single theme that we launched, I designed. We gradually added the best themes that we liked the most, some of them were Tumblr themes, and others were created by Posterous users, e.g. http://corywatilo.com http://corywatilo.com
- a4agarwal 16y agoI wouldn't even call them "Tumblr themes." These were just blog themes, owned by a third party, who licensed them to us for use on Posterous. They just happened to be on Tumblr first, but don't have any other affiliation to that service.
