Tumblr (fox) filter

Features

Filter and search your dashboard posts, liked posts and tumblog posts by type, reblog status, popularity, tag or date
Filter and search through tumblelogs you're following
Download and cache your liked posts
Full text search your cached posts

tl;dr

A Chrome extension that adds a new navigation tab and dropdown that allows you to filter and search through your dashboard/liked/following posts via text search, type or tag.

In action

The idea

Create new components by aggregating Tumblr features that are often over looked or have a silly implementation (such as indash blogs) or complicated UI (filter options for indash blog posts are hidden until a search term is entered... why?) or are arbitrarily disabled (Tumblr has a decently functioning NSFW filter for indash blog posts, why is it disabled by default?) into a functional component.
Create tools, mixins, etc. to make developing Backbone components using Tumblr code easier

Problems

Since TumblrFox makes heavy use of local storage, clearing your browser cache can wipeout TumblrFox's database!
Tumblr api is inconsistent when it comes to fetching follower and dashboard data (i.e., data where you have to specify offsets: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tumblr-api/aFiFJ9DB-us).

The future

Look ahead on dashboard posts/cache sessions
