You've reached Eddie LeBreton's Tumblelog. This site aggregates my various online identities (blog, Twitter, Flickr, Hype Machine) into one site/feed. It is a continual work in progress, so bear with me.

Originally from New Orleans, LA, I currently live in Austin, TX, where I am earning an MBA from the McCombs School of Business at UT. My interests include venture capital, tech strategy and finance. Previous to McCombs, I worked on financial technologies for the equity trading and research communities in New York City.

In my spare time, I am an Associate Producer for Venture Voice, a podcast and blog focused on "entertaining entrepreneurship."

You can also find me (in varying degrees of activity) on: Facebook, LinkedIn, del.icio.us, Disqus, digg, Dopplr & Yelp.

Pop Art @ The Blue Genie Art Bazaar: From national scandals to Internet memes, they’ve got it all. I seriously considered buying the Star Wars Kid print.

Just clapped out loud when I read that Wordpress 2.7 “Coltrane” has added 1-click upgrading from within the browser. Best feature yet.

Tumblr Likes, what's the deal?

What’s the deal with these “likes?” How do I view all the posts I’ve liked? Is there any way I can export my likes outside of Tumblr? Can I do so outside the API and/or Yahoo! Pipes? Is the purpose just to let the author know I enjoy the post?

I realize I could look all this up somewhere, but figured it might be easier to ask.

Stopped by the Christmas decorations on 37th Street (b/t Guadalupe and Home). Impressive. Looks like some are still setting up, though.

Thinking that Yahoo! Pipes is the likely answer to most of my online content duplication problems. Too bad it’s so damn confusing.
