Kūrie is an extension that makes the Tumblr inbox accessible to you through a Chrome dialog located on the top right of your screen. It will also notify you of new messages.
The only requirement for Kūrie to work well is for you to have “Show my unread message count” selected under the Dashboard tab of Tumblr’s preferences.
Advanced features currently include:
* basic Tumblr functionality (reply to messages, edit and publish submissions, block user, delete message)
* searching
* sorting
* mass deletion
* send messages
* submit content
* outbox that saves your private replies, outgoing messages, and outgoing fan mail
* “like” messages
* filter-proof your messages so that Tumblr’s filtering system doesn’t toss them out
* drafts for answering questions
* blacklist
* favorite users (highlights your favorite users)
* least favorite users (doesn’t display messages from your least favorite users)
* a badge to mark people who you follow
* 6 alert sounds to choose from (or you can turn it off, whatever)
* increase web brand
Kūrie realizes that your information is private and does not and will not share it with any private party.
It worked at first, but I tried to change the alert sound, because the default sound is quite startling, and I couldn’t change it. Also, It stopped connecting all of a sudden and doesn’t work anymore.
It’s amazing. I get instant messages from the inbox! I’ve been using this for a while. It notifies you of new inbox messages with sound and it also lets you reply to them through a small window. Works wonders.
