I'm surprised there aren't more things like this out there. With GitHub, Tumblr, etc. basically allowing you to host almost whatever you want it's surprising people still pay for hosting their small, personal-ish websites.
- stingraycharles 12y agoYeah, especially because you can host it on a custom domain, and having your website in a git repo is pretty nice, using githuh for your blog / homepage / whatever seems like a no-brainer.
- icefox 12y agoLast I heard using your own domain on top of github had issues, has this been resolved?
- stingraycharles 12y agoI've recently done this for one of my projects and didn't encounter any issues at all.
- wodenokoto 12y agoI guess I'm out of the loop. What cool things can I do on tumblr?
- justboxing 12y agoFor 1, you can use tumblr as your media CDN, i.e. post photos, videos and other bandwidth heavy stuff, and use the tumblr API to access and display them on your website / blog.
- roozbeh18 12y agotumblr actually allows you to use custom domain, i currently have 4-5 domains where my clients only update once a year for an event. i make up a custom theme and them take it over. no fuss around with hosting it.
