Tumblr API Module
Today I took over the Tumblr API module from the Jeff Eaton. Jeff had done some initial work on building a pretty solid API to interact with Tumblr's API, but never got around to doing any more with it. I did some work that I was going to offer as a patch, but Jeff decided to just let me run with the module.
The work I've done is currently in cvs head. The aim of the development was to create an easy to use API and to use Feed API to ingest the Tumblr posts. Each type of Tumblr post (regular, link, quote, conversation, photo, audio and video) is formatted similarly to that on Tumblr to create nodes. Each field is also available to be used by Feed Element Mapper. This is especially cool, since you can put map individual data items to cck fields.

This is exactly what I'm looking for! I'm trying desperately to somehow integrate tumblr into my drupal site. Is there anything that I can download now in terms of this module?
A young boy and his dad went out fishing one fine morning. After a few quiet hours out in the boat, the boy became curious about the world around him. He looked up at his dad and asked "How do fish breath under water?"His dad thought about it for a moment, then replied, "I really don't know, son."The boy sat quietly from another moment, then turned back to his dad and asked, "How does our boat float on the water?"Nnce again his dad replied, "Don’t know, son."Pondering his thoughts again, a short while later, the boy asks "Why is the sky blue?"Again, his dad replied. "Don’t know, son."The inquisitive boy, worried he was annoying his father, asks this time "Dad, do you mind that I'm asking you all of these questions?""Of course not son." replied his dad, "How else are you ever going to learn anything?"
