Re: Tumblr domain needs updating
Yeah it did look phishy (especially with the IP address) but it links to a tumblr.com help page that says we should be pointing to domains.tumblr.com. We may even already be pointing to that?

FreeAgent jukebox external hard drive?
Hey, since I'm moving I've left the box and five-year warranty for the forest's hard drive in the office, Swithun is going to collect and will look after it. But what ever happened to the hard drive? Is it still being used by the jukebox? It's still under warranty.
