What is the Tumblr?



Hello everyone! :D

It is the first post in my blog! My blog is all about Tumblr. 
So, today I'm going to introduce the Tumblr! 
Have you ever heard of Tumblr? or are you using it now?




According to Wikipedia, they defined Tumblr 
"Tumblr, stylized as tumblr., is a microblogging platform and social networking website, owned and operated by Tumblr, Inc. The service allows users to post multimedia and other content to a short-form blog. Users can follow other users' blogs, as well as make their blogs private. Much of the website's features are accessed from the "dashboard" interface, where the option to post content and posts of followed blogs appear."
Yes, in a simple word, Tumblr is a micro blog (simple blog) which allows you to upload picture, audio, video and follow other's Tumblr like Twitter. So, some people said that Tumblr is between Facebook and Twitter.

Tumblr URL: http://tumblr.com


Also according to Wikipedia,
"As of August 20, 2012, Tumblr has over 69.4 million blogs and more than 29.8 billion total posts. As of September 2011, the website receives more than 13 billion views per month. As of July 2010, the site receives 25,000 new users each day and as of July 2012, 71.6 million posts are created on the site each day. 
The service is most popular with the teen and college-aged user segments with half of Tumblr's visitor base being under the age of 25. As of 2009, Tumblr had an 85% retention rate,[20] compared with 40% for Twitter."

Like this, Tumblr is getting popular! Still Koreans are not familiar with Tumblr because Tumblr didn't offer Korean version unlike Twitter and Facebook but, It is definitely worth using. 

Tumblr actually is well-known for high-res, sophisticated image and photos of users. If you are fan of specific artist, singer, actor or something you will be satisfied with lots of photos and image information. I'm 100% sure!

From next post, I will post how to use Tumblr specifically :) If you don't know how to use it, you are able to use it easily!
