Tumblr/Feedly integration
The idea of Tumblr/Feedly integration is great. The only thing that bothers me and stops from using that function, is that items from Feedly are posted in tumblr as a "Text" type of the post. As you may know, Tumblr provide other types of the posts and I thought, that the more "natural" way (for the tumblr user) of sharing some interesting links is just posting them as a LINK :) That type of post is more visible than just the plain text (in most of the themes) allows you to add some kind of description/commentary to the link and IMHO works/looks (which is important for many users) better. Just go and check some tumblelogs to see the difference and you will notice, that it will be better option.
Image: above is the way Feedly adds the items now as a Text, below - the same link added manually by me as a Link, with short description (which is impossible to add with feedly).

Inappropriate?Thanks for the heads up. The picture is very helpful. One question: which option did you use to post the content from feedly to tumblr? Did you use the create quote option in the annotation popup or did you use the tumblr link/action?
-
Inappropriate?I used the tumblr link.

Inappropriate?Thanks. I think that you are right and LINK would be a better choice for the tumblr action. We will try to change it over the next week or so. We will update this thread when we do. Thanks for the suggestions!!!
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Hi wizkid. Thanks again for the suggestion. We improved the integration in version 1.2.174 so that when you click on tumblr without having made any annotations to the article then a link is created as you suggested. patch 1.2.174 will go out tomorrow. If you get a chance to try it can you please confirm that this is what you had in mind? Thank you!

Inappropriate?1.2.174 is out. You should get patched next time you restart the browser.
