WooTumblog is a new free WordPress plugin that adds Tumblr-style posting to WordPress blogs.

The idea behind this plugin is to bring the benefits of Tumblr’s rapid microblogging to WordPress sites.

This plugin works with any WordPress theme and activates a custom taxonomy that you will find accessible from your WordPress backend. You can then post to the custom taxonomy from the tumblog quickpress widget on your WordPress dashboard page.

Posting tumblog content takes seconds and it is clearly differentiated from your normal blog posts thanks to some in-post styling icons.

Free iPhone App

The developer has also released Express – an iPhone app built to quickly publish images/links/notes and short posts, on the go, to sites using the WooTheme Tumblog plugin.
