I’ve been playing around with Tumblr lately, and last night I set it up so that my Tumblr page shows up under a subdomain of my own site.

From my work computer (and apparently all other computers) I can see my “tumblelog” just fine. From my home computer, I see an empty directory listing.

What gives?

Try flushing your DNS.

Yeah… I ended up doing that, in a way. Originally I had set up tumble as a separate subdomain, which apparently didn’t work entirely… so tonight I undid that and edited the DNS for my primary domain, then hit Dreamhost’s DNS reset button.

And now it seems to work.

Go figure.
