I follow alot of blogs…like, seriously ALOT! It’s sorta ridiculous.
I used to click the star next to posts I liked and wanted to return to in my Google Reader. (You are using Google Reader to keep up with blogs, right?) The problem I found with that was that I haven’t gone back to look at them. Gasp!
Sooooo, one of my favorite things I have started doing is to share it on Tumblr. I’m using Tumblr as a bookmark of sorts. I’m sure there are other ways to use it, but for me it works this way. When I find something that I absolutely love, I post it to Tumblr using the handy-dandy button in my toolbar. Since I’m visual, I post a picture. By using the Tumblr toolbar, I don’t have to do much…Tumblr does it for me! With the click of a button, Tumblr will link to the blog post for me. I could be done at that point, but I usually add a tag to help me categorize it so I can find it later if I want.
The thing that is neat about Tumblr is that you can follow others and their posts show up in a “feed” for you. (Kinda like Facebook’s news feed) I follow my favorite preschool/homeschool bloggers and find the best ideas through them! Blogs that I normally wouldn’t be scanning, have popped up in my “feed” with the best ideas for “Mommy & Me” Time. So…while I may be too sick to post fun things that we’re doing…um cause we’re not doing much right now…I AM posting links on Tumblr to fabulous ideas!
I love Tumblr! It works for me!

What a fun idea. I am so happy you shared it with us and will hop over and check it out. Sorry to hear you’re not feeling well. Hopefully the second trimester will be better (I”ll say a little prayer for ya)!

Oops didn’t comment like I thought I had. I’m with you Tumblr is cool, so is Evernote, which is my other storage plan.
