Mare Mare Beach Hair, sunlover, wrote some guide for Austin or something. I didn't read it, because I don't bother trying to read her stuff anymore; if I wanted to correct spelling and grammar in essays I'd be a danged teacher. Anyway, for some reason Mary just posted this on her tumblr: My Austin guide was riddled with typos. We all know I am a terrible speller, but today’s mistakes were inexcusable. Editing in Wordpress is actually challenging, but that doesn’t mean I simply can’t write out my post on a blank document to paste into the text box when...

The new Julia Allison reblogging site established at rebloggingdonk.com appears to be suspended.  No further details on why are available at this time.

Jessica Quirk, who abruptly went to romantic tropical Jamaica with her husband's family for the weekend, has caused an internets paradox by frolicking on the beach in a blue polka dot bathing suit. The episode, harmless in itself, brought Post Julia Allison Stress sufferers to the brink of relapse due to the alarming similarities to this disturbing video: Internet experts say that if LoveLifeLace creates another version of this incident, the internet may collapse in on itself until only cat memes remain.

In their continuing efforts to bumble their way into obsolescence, tumblr has introduced another pointless new feature: The new Explore page organizes and filters posts by tag. This means that every tagged post has a chance to show up in front of an audience of millions that might not otherwise see it. Think Tumblr Radar by topic. Wow, amazing! Just what I needed - not a way to reply to replies or a better commenting option, not a way to like replies, not server stability, not you people stop autotagging my posts, not how about my Crap posts in the order I send...

As the battle between cold hard facts and Denton's ego burns on, it appears the commenter base that built the Gawker media empire is being wooed to join Crasstalk - a website that describes itself as "launched in November 2010 by a group of chronic oversharers and other servicey folks who frequent Gawker, especially its #crosstalk forum." Since I never hung out in #crosstalk or Gawker maybe I'm missing the point here, but this Crasstalk site is even more labyrinthine than the new Gawker. Users are directed through a "how do I start commenting" page, that instructs them to sign up...

While Rich Tong busily sends off bortchy responses to users questioning his fashion week blogger choices, tumblr has already served up enough errors this morning to prompt people to complain to me (because obviously I have total control over tumblr's servers). Way to start off the week, guys!

After being taken down about 2099999 pegs by a bunch of teenage girls at Fashion Week, Jessica Quirk learned absolutely nothing: Today I was really craving a comfort day - just a jeans and sweatshirt kind of outfit. And as you can see, I’m continuing my obsession with all things striped.  What can I say? I just love stripes. I also love pairing them with long, dark navy wide leg jeans (so nautical!)  The hot pink scarf was something I spied from across the street on my last trip to NYC and for only $5, I thought it would be...

Special thanks to that Love Life Lace chick for giving me an image for our Humpday Open Post! Start your open post commenting engines.

As people continue to complain to Nick Denton about the Gawker media properties redesign, His Gawker Lordship pretty much rolls his eyes and tell his readers to figure it out: Look, Nick. I know you know EVERYTHING EVER about running a website, but when people are still bortching over a week later about your Crapty, barely functional site, maybe instead of telling them to go back to the old view of it you should just implement THAT view of it? (I can't even figure out what the hole "blog view" is, since there is nothing that clearly shows me how...

After a triumphant week of fashion and putting clothes on every day, Jessica Quirk has rolled up her hucky sack and gone back to her home in Bloominonion or wherever. After the omg most breathlessly exciting week of her life (after her wedding of course!) where she had a chance to meet influential people like Rich Tong and some 17 year old blogger from Arkansas, Messica only has one thing on her mind: All I can think of is I GET TO SEE @QUIRK TODAY!!!about 3 hours ago via web I need a nap and a home cooked snack ....

Jessica Schroeder Quirk, scarving expert, is showing Lincoln Center how true scarfness is achieved with this simple outfit. This season's latest shade of Sad Salmon perfectly blends with black. But of course let's not forget the one must have accessory for every woman: Keep on being fashion, catladies!

David Karp, super important celebrity, took his little tax deduction Rachel to the Standard for his Valentine's day. How do we know this? Because Karp posted sexy pics of his sexy sex hipster accessory: No Rachel, you TOTALLY won't regret these pics being all over tumblr if you two break up. By the way, nice Louboutins. I thought you were going to college, but I guess students these days can afford 3,000 dollar shoes. Otherwise I hope you sent those venture capital companies a nice thank you note for giving your boyfriend all that money to spend with you!

Because there aren't enough mediocre women doing their best "Scarecrow from Wizard of Oz" pose blogs out there, Jordan Reid has now decided to jump on the style blog train: The announcement I mentioned last week: Ramshackle Glam – along with several other great blogs including Keiko Lynn, Cupcakes & Cashmere, and My Style Pill - has partnered up with AOL Stylelist. So excited about all the fun collaborations coming up! AOL will pretty much throw money at anything at this point, and that Cupcakes chick is involved with every single thing that promises some self-promotion, so pardon me if...

Mary Rambin, inventor of fashion week blogging, posted yesterday what is becoming her routine contribution to the style party: My #NYFW weekend plans While the fashionistas are fighting the crowd at the tents and watching regurgitated trends parade down the runway, I’ll be curled up with this guy…Thinking about renting The Education… My ensemble will include way-out-of style velour pants and an over-sized cashmere sweater. Apologies to those of who still remember and  inquire about my livestreams.  I’m really glad you enjoyed my endless hours of commenting, mingling, and moments of shear exhaustion/bortchiness.  Honestly, my absence is not due to...

As day one of NYFW kicks off and people pour into seats, tumblr still hasn't done anything with their New York Fashion Week page. Ah well, it's only 9:30 am. I'm sure it will be up shortly! UPDATE: http://www.tumblr.com/nyfw now directs to http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/nyfw so it is basically just displaying anything tagged NYFW. Another underwhelming conclusion from tumblr.

Since it worked out so well for Gawker, Jessica Quirk unveiled a new design for her tumblr. As you know, nothing says "modern" and "trend aware" like soft drop shadows and slightly rotated pics. She also decided to apply the nap inducing font of her book website, and while it is easier to read than that script font she had, it is boring and doesn't exactly scream "I am a creative and interesting individual".  At least she finally wrote a new blurb: So yeah, whatever. This is obviously just a redesign centered around pushing her book, but still you would...

Mary Rambin, first person to liveblog fashion week, has BREAKING NEWS: This just in: AOL bought The Huffington Post for $315 million dollars. And in case you forget that Mary does everything before everyone else, she wraps up her tumblr post with this little aside: (Side note: I received this news FIRST from Anthony on Twitter, at least 10 minutes before Mashable posted it.) Got that? She was THE FIRST to get the story of AOL buying HuffPo, except for all the other people who heard it before her.

Months after leaking their beta site all over the internet to gag vomit wtf reviews, Gawker Media has decided it can do no wrong and launched its tragic redesign anyway. Around the internet responses have ranged from appalled to annoyed: "It’s not fully functional, it’s full of bugs, it’s not so attractive that it cancels out the annoyance of being buggy, and it’s time-warping. All in all, thumbs down." "The feedback from users was overwhelmingly negative, and there were tons of bugs so … they expanded it to the entire Gawker network." "I'm having nothing but problems with this redesign....

Jordan Reid, who makes a living being Jordan Reid, had a pretty exciting Thursday. She found a belt and dropped a taunt that she is doing something SUPER AWESOME (but can't share what): Yesterday morning, I was thrilled to rediscover this ’70s-style chain-link belt hiding wayyyy in the back of my overcrowded closet...Anyway, I love it, and I especially love it with wide-legged jeans and a bloused-out tank, all of which I wore to yesterday’s meeting downtown (fun announcement coming up shortly!). So I guess we will soon be hearing about The Jordan Reid Show or Jordan Reid: Recipies for...

Mary Rambin, inventor of fashion week web documenting, is hotter than an apple fritter in August over Vogue Italia's remarks about fashion bloggers: “ don’t do much damage because they are like moths,” writes Franca Sozzana, the editor of Italian Vogue…on her blog! She’s talking about bloggers sitting front row at New York, Paris, and Milan Fashion weeks. This post comes even after spending a day with Bryan Boy.  The interview is written out in Italian so I have no idea how that turned out, but apparently he didn’t change her opinion of our flock. If you’re unaware, editors CANNOT STAND...
