Signed out of Tumblr and saw this.

When the fuck did this happen!?

Socket Load Testing (Join Us).

I think the server was overloading due to Unix Socket connections not ending so I’d like to try another round of stress testing.  Feel free to jump on.  If a lot of people come on and it doesn’t crash, I’ll start developing rooms.  How is that for incentive?

Remember kids, you must have Chrome or Safari.  Whiners and griefers will be banned by moderators.  Please don’t ask dumb questions.

Help a genuinely nice guy out by (somewhat) stress testing his new Tumblr Chat app. It’s pretty darn good too :)

Tumblr Crushes (15/08/2010)

Wow, talk about neck and neck on the top row there with three excellent women to whet your female blogging appetite with.

Like Karthik, I too appear to exist as a Tumblr womaniser. Where are my bros at people!?

Anyway, besides having my ideas stolen, I shall present you with my new percentage-based crushes:

1. KG (Duh.)
2. Patricia (Would it be a complement to suggest I wouldn’t even know how to describe her due to how incredibly diverse she is?)
3. Kelsey (The biggest surprise on my list with the new crushes system, she’s relatively new to my dashboard and totally fucking awesome. By that I mean going by her posts she is theoretically half-British, and that’s always a good thing in my books!)
4. Alex (Weezer fan, check. Likes hockey, check. Passion for memes, check. Fellow bro, check. Everything you need to make an awesome guy)
5. Karthik (My incredibly verbose American brother whose posts are of the highest quality you’ll ever find on Tumblr)
6. Justin (A lover of sports who also happens to post whatever he wants, however he wants, whenever he wants. For that alone without even having to mention his many other awesome characteristics I admire him)
7. Darren (Essentially the male equivalent of KG, he’s a sassy drama queen… and he knows it! Haven’t had the pleasure of talking to him outside of Tumblr yet. One day on one of those hilarious-looking Tinychat conversations of yours?)
8. Kelly (A crazy and intense girl who seems to be a tonne of fun to hang out with, she works as a lifeguard and has some great stories from it too. She’s a really open individual when it comes to blogging who posts a tonne of photos too which is always awesome and is definitely someone I’d like to get to know better.)
9. Staff (Yup, the people who run the place. They’re occasionally nice when they update their API to match the current feature set. Besides that, they’re reading my blog for my many ideas on improving Tumblr and doing their best to keep the site from going down, hah. Despite that you’re still the best social network out there so I tip my hat to you sirs.)

Congratulations to Lorraine Coolidge and Wood Simmons for winning the Tumblr t-shirt design contest.  As winners, they will each received 25 t-shirts of their winning design to share with their friends.

For those of you not lucky enough to be friends with the winners, Lorraine’s Houses and Wood’s Connecting are both available for purchase in the Tumblr store on BustedTees.

A big thanks goes out to Tumblr and all of you that submitted and voted for your favorite designs.

Congratulations! I especially like the Connecting design and how the graphic is off-centred from the middle of the t-shirt, though I’d personally like to see it printed on the same navy as the Faux Logo t-shirt.
