Tumblr now allows us to publicly share the posts that we like. You can enable it from your preferences page.
Unlike Google Reader’s icky URL system for shared items:
http://www.google.com/reader/shared/17323533843022648317
Tumblr’s is simple and straightforward:
http://www.tumblr.com/liked/by/chartier
Of course, this feature is optional and turned off by default. If you prefer not to share your liked items with anyone outside Tumblr, you have nothing to worry about.
This is a fun feature that will help expose more non-Tumblr users to some of the content that gets posted across the network. Sure, there’s the Popular page that collects the über-posts that collect hundreds, if not thousands, of these little hat-tips. But now users can publicly share their own favorite slice of Tumblr with the world.
