I bet I’ll be the only one absolutely not thrilled about this news, but really sad instead. Tumblerette’s and Tumblr API main drawback was the lack of API for accessing to a Dashboard, so I made a parser and was writing my own iPhone Dashboard app.
This idea grew from a major itch I had: not being able to read and properly follow my dashboard on the road: MobileSafari memory management flakiness was too much to bear while reading new posts.
But now with a free and officially backed by Tumblr app, my app is nowhere to go, or at least for the meanwhile. I’d better start considering new apps to develop.
Last month hacking nights are not completely wasted since I learned a lot, but still… Anyway, congratulations to everyone and at least I’ll have a great app to use.
