Hussie has a Tumblr now.
I'd quote it, but really his first three posts are all pure gold. I wonder how long the minimalist design will last, since he just started typing an hour ago.
My only complaint about tumblr as a software-solution is trying to navigate back in pages, since you have to scroll to the bottom of each page and hit Back over and over.
3) Amazon S3, etc? I’ve looked into a bunch of things like this. It’s expensive. Under usual circumstances, it costs several thousand dollars every month to host MSPA. And I’m fine with floating that cost myself, from ad revenue and sales, and making the business side of things work to sustain it. This is a little different. A conservative estimate has the cost at $10K for one day. This is not considering excessive page reloads, the aftershocks of hosting it for the following weeks, or an unanticipated viral explosion beyond the already high expected traffic. Could be anywhere from $10K to $100K to host this one stupid file, which is bankruptcy territory. It’s not worth that to put out a little free entertainment, frankly. If I posted that kind of content for such an audience every month, I’d find some business strategy to make that work. But I’m not there yet. Also, I’m not gonna do some sort of fund drive to finance this either. I’m sure that would produce some results, but it just doesn’t sit well with me as the answer.
So I’m working on more creative alternatives for handling this. I’ll let you know.
He's still struggling with a hosting solution, the evening before. That ain't good, if totally understandable. Interesting line in there...

Oh God, he's got something on his mind. Let the speculation commence.
