i just got one that i'm going to be using in earnest today, it is here. post your tumblr blogs i know you have them and use them.

my i guess general goal with the tumblr is to post a couple of things a day that are relatively inconsequential but post once every two days with some actual like paragraphs and thoughts of my own on it. i am looking to kind of stretch several muscles writing-wise with it. please consider to join me on this adventure where we make dorky posts about things on the internet & eventually degenerate into youtube meme shouting matches

mine is here, it is pretty random.

also tumblr is probably the main reason why my posting is so terrible now

I don't have a tumblr.

I guess I'm not part of "everyone".

Elysiana · « **Reply #5 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 13:12 »

I started a tumblr, and the next day was when they started going down every other day, so I deleted it

Have they gotten better about keeping their servers up and running? I started a Wordpress account instead but don't know many people who use WP.

KvP · « **Reply #6 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 13:36 »

Mostly reposting of stuff and music I'm listening to.

Also I guess Tumblr is the new Facebook, since people are against it on principle?

This is mine but I don't have any original content on there, I just reblog things I think are cute/funny.

michaelicious · « **Reply #8 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 16:01 »

I don't think I use my tumblr properly.

Johnny C · « **Reply #9 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 16:17 »

i'm stoked on tumblr i think, i don't know why. something about the format just appeals to me more than a standard blog

Lunchbox · « **Reply #10 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 16:23 »

I prefer using a standard blog for standard blogging. The link is in my signature but I haven't blogged for like, a month, because I have been busy/dead from heat.
Why is 'blog' and its variants not a word in the Chrome spell checker? Eesh.

It's definitely user-friendly, which is exciting at first, but over time it becomes apparent that Tumblr essentially exists as a meme farm more than anything. I meant to perform actual feats of writing on my tumblr and it's just no use. Images of all sorts and short quotes are its bread and butter. It's essentially a more expansive version of Twitter.

Christophe · « **Reply #12 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 16:39 »

My personal blog is here. I haven't posted on it in a while, but when I do, it's half split between reblogging stuff I like and traditional blogging.

I also started a really stupid tumblr called Look At This Fucking Cow, which combines the bovine power of pictures of cows and not-even-witty captions that accompany them. Let me know if you'd like to contribute?

allison · « **Reply #13 on:** 09 Feb 2011, 16:51 »

I have heaps of taste Paul, mainly my taste is for cupcakes but sometimes it is for peanut butter chocolate.
Also I don't know where you get this 'pointless' part from.

Rizzo · « **Reply #22 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 02:07 »

Mine is mostly garbage and lulz but that's what I use it for, to amuse myself.

So people mostly just use tumblr as their own personal pointless thread?

est · « **Reply #24 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 04:05 »

pointless thread / creepily reposted pictures of cute girls.

Rizzo · « **Reply #25 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 04:27 »

I used to use it as a porn repository as well. Then I realised that I didn't really give a fuck about porn.

jhocking · « **Reply #26 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 06:54 »

wtf is tumblr

I mean, I know there is a site called Tumblr but I don't know what it's for. Other than making me increasingly out of touch that is.

valley_parade · « **Reply #27 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 07:19 »

What the old man just said. I already use Facebook and Twitter for posting mindless drivel.

Johnny C · « **Reply #28 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 07:28 »

pointless, tasteless

The Seldom Killer · « **Reply #29 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 07:41 »

I like to fill it with tumblers.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #31 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 08:00 »

I haven't updated my tumblr thing for about three months, but I may do so again in the future when I have times. I am not sure I 'get' tumblr; I thought it was for high-concept blogging. My high-concept blog is Descriptions of Heavy Metal Videos, 'Textual descriptions of the events which occur during various heavy metal music videos.'.

I should definitely get some more done some time.

JD · « **Reply #32 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 08:04 »

I have one but I don't use it that much. In Tumblr's defense it is pretty good for art blogs.

Drill King · « **Reply #33 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 09:20 »

Hey guys!

I really like tumblr.

I use mine for all original photo work, and occasionally a personal life post or something that I've been a part of. It's more or less the only way I publicly share my work with the exception of a few things on facebook, but honestly I promise I post nice things most of the time.

So basically you should follow it because photos are nice especially since they're original content. plug plug etc

David_Dovey · « **Reply #34 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 12:29 »

Yeah it seems to me that like everything else, Tumblr is just a cipher and it can be used for good and evil. I feel like Andy and thepopstalinist is doing Tumblr right. It's just another way of blogging, that tends to make cross-media stuff easier than previous blogging platforms like Livejournal. And just like there are brilliant LJ blogs, there are fantastic Tumblrs. There's nothing intrinsic to the site itself, it's just a tool.

Eris · « **Reply #35 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 14:36 »

Maybe I am just dumb and cant work out how to do it, but I wish there was an easier way to just browse through various posts of different tumblrs. I know if I go to the directory i can see a heap that some people have said are great, but why can't I just see a heap of posts and go to their tumblrs if I like it? That is one of the very few things about deviantart that I like, I go and look at pages and pages of art, and something jumps out at me and I go from there and follow them to see more of their stuff. I don't really know how to find new people to follow on tumblr easily other than people I already know or webcomic artists.

mine's here by the way. I don't update it very often; i should get back onto that.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #36 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 14:41 »

You should! I like yr arts

Lunchbox · « **Reply #37 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 15:08 »

Han I follow a tumblr called ArtLove, which posts different things from a bunch of artists. I don't think there is a way to do what you're saying other than to find tumblrs like that.

20 jazz funk greats · « **Reply #38 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 22:14 »

i have a tumbler. i started it with the intention of posting original artwork, but i've done that uh...once in the entire time i've had it.

but having more followers would be cool i guess?

After you've driven to the pub in your tumbler to have a drink with the tumblers, what do you drink out of?

Johnny C · « **Reply #40 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 22:24 »

an old fashioned glass

Inlander · « **Reply #41 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 22:39 »

No Johnny C, the correct answer is that you don't drink at all because you're the designated driver.

Tom · « **Reply #42 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 22:53 »

Thank you, Harry. Everyone just looked at me funny.

Inlander · « **Reply #43 on:** 10 Feb 2011, 23:08 »

It's a shame that everyone around you thinks so little of the idea of designated drivers.

Too much stereotyping narrows the mind.

Paul is old enough to have perfected the art of applying just the right amount of stereotyping.

sorry yeah that's me.

I never really post anything of value, just reblog a lot of stuff. i mostly use my tumblr just for the dashboard so i can read a lot of articles about trans and gay people and look at pictures of suicide girls and lady gaga.
