Thanks for all the great replies! I'm going to go ahead and buy it and dive right in. I'll probably end up having loads of other questions and whatnot and will visit this forum often.

Total Newb Question: Use Tumblr API Through Pythonista?
I want to use Pythonista to automate reblogging from one of my tumblr blogs to another (they're my kids' sites that I set up for my parents. When I have a blog that features both of them I want it to be reblogged automatically based on a tag).
I want to either have a script that looks for all recent posts and checks to see which ones haven't been reblogged yet and then reblog them, or have one that simply reblogs the most recent post (doesn't need to use a special tag). The second one being easiest and not requiring the storing of data in some kind of database, but the first one would be BY FAR my preferred solution.
This Python Tumblr REST library exists: https://github.com/tumblr/pytumblr
Would it be possible to load the four or five scripts from this open source project into Pythonista and then use it to make REST calls to Tumblr from a script? Preferably this would be automated with Workflow.app or just as a shortcut on the App Launcher or something. I'm asking before I dive in and buy Pythonista.
Thanks!
