Just as a note, this is the third time that Tumblr has delayed posting something by more than 12 hours. In this case, I had used the official Tumblr app to schedule the picture to post at a specific date and time. Sure enough, when I logged in this morning to check on it Tumblr had it listed in my queue as something to post on Saturday at 11 AM. Perhaps they intend the feature as mneumonic device?

Anyone know any better options for blogging that 1.) allow me to send a photo without having to manually resize and upload somewhere, and 2.) allow me to embed the blog feed on my own website (Posterous, sorry, your widget doesn’t count)?

Today, a walkthrough of my Saturday project: creating a pocketed lining for my new bag. For the zipper I used the excellent tutorial here.

I’ll post a photo of the final product later today.
