Backup your Tumblr with tumblr-rb v2.1.0

Backup your Tumblr with tumblr-rb v2.1.0:

mwunsch:

In light of some of the recent headlines surrounding a Tumblr acquisition, I’ve just hastily written and released an update to tumblr-rb — my command line utility and library for the Tumblr API.

I’ve added a new command in this version: tumblr backup

This will download and write all of your tumblr posts, serialized into a simple plain text format, into a directory you list, or your current working directory.

Downloaded the new version with homebrew¹ or rubygems, run tumblr authorize to authenticate, and then back up all of your posts in one easy command. You’ll want to give it your tumblr hostname or else you’ll be asked for it repeatedly:

$ TUMBLRHOST=mwunsch.tumblr.com tumblr backup ~/tumblr_backup

Open an issue on GitHub if you encounter any problems.

This script doesn’t download the associated media with your posts, just the posts themselves, in a format suitable for both humans and machines to read.

brew install https://raw.github.com/mwunsch/tumblr/master/share/tumblr-rb.rb ↩

General Office Studies

Wed, 15 May 2013 21:43:21 -0400

It’s not unusual to hear someone say “I just love animals, I’d love almost any job where I work with them” or “I just love cars, I’d love almost any job where I can work with them.”

I’d really love to meet someone who was that way about offices. “I just love offices, I’d love any job where I get to work in an office.”

I’ve had a lot of jobs in a lot of different industries, almost all of them have been desk jobs in offices and as such have been fairly similar jobs. Maybe colleges should just offer a major called “General Office Studies.”

And I know what you’re thinking, “Isn’t that what we the liberal arts are for?” Sure, pretty much all of those majors will guarantee you a long life of tedious office work, but we should offer young students the ability to really dig in and explore the subtle skill of feigning interest in a long meeting and the delicate art of quickly minimizing your browser window when someone walks by. It’s these skills, more than anything, that have allowed me to get to where I am today.
