Simple blogging platform Tumblr has finally added the ability to add static pages to your Tumblelog.
Tumblr has grown a great deal without this feature — its simplicity has always been its selling point. However, many companies
need static pages — it’s often the best way to provide contact info,
company data and more to provide customers with the information they
need. Regular users can use them to describe who they are or what they
are working on.
Now
tumblrs have the option to build pages. While simple overall (it’s just
like building a blog post), you do get three choices for layouts:
standard (title and body with your tumblelogs’s layout), custom (create
a page with a completely custom theme), and redirect (forward a page to another domain).
The
new pages feature seems to keep Tumblr’s simplicity intact while
providing a very necessary feature to many bloggers. From the looks of
commenters though, the feature still has a few bugs. So Tumblr users,
let us know what you think of the addition in the comments!
