Tumblr announced some big new developments they’re working on. The first is an improvement to an existing feature, Tags. Now, tagged posts automatically generate #hashtags (much like the Twitter system) that collect similar posts into a group. The hashtags are displayed below your post and link to a page containing other posts with the same tag. Because there’s 650,000+ posts being published daily, Tumblr allows you to sort these by relevancy including most liked and most reblogged with a cool slider. The feature is still in development so the Tumblr staff say you may find a bug or two. Additionally, the central hashtag directory is not yet complete. Additionally, Tumblr is working on direct integration with Facebook.
