Why tumblr?

July 9th, 2008

tumblr 2

I’ve been blogging less lately, but tumblring more. Or, I guess more accurately, tumblogging more. You can check out my tumblog down on the lower right column (below the links) or here to see if you care or not.

Why tumblr? I’m not sure that I could tell you exactly (sorry, I know my title implied I’d know the answer). Yes, it was started by one of our great friends and former interns, and yes, I’m an invester and board member. But that’s not really it, because tumblr’s been around for over a year and I just started last week. Yes, it’s easier. Sure, it’s allows you to virtually hang out with your friends and their friends in a simple way. And, for certain, it lets you find a lot of cool stuff –art, songs, writing– you really didn’t think you needed anyway, but are happy to have.

(Here’s a much smarter analysis than mine, for those so inclined.)

Bottom line? All I can tell you is that I’m having lots of fun with my tumblr. And who doesn’t want to have more fun?
