The Tumblr Backup app is ready for its first beta testing.
Unlike other publishing sites’ approach to backups, our goal was to create a useful copy of your blog’s _content_ that can be viewed on any computer, burned to a CD, or hosted as an archive of static HTML files.This is great news. Now, to look a gift horse in the mouth for a moment, let’s establish a rule that if you’re building a service the whole point of which is to store user data, you must have a full backup solution - I mean a user-accessible one, not something on your end - at launch. There have been too many stories of dispersed clouds lately.
My favorite release note:
Sorry, there’s no Windows version yet.Ho, ho, ho.
