Tumblr
Tumblr is a blogging platform that’s managed to stay popular and relevant throughout all seven years of its existence. It even survived a change of ownership, a feat that not many websites can claim.
Although I have not had much experience with the website
prior to writing this review, I’ve long been aware of Tumblr’s reputation. It
appears that the place is considered a haven for teenage girls and their older,
university-aged siblings. Blogs are either spattered with pink frills and anime
characters or filled with dark, gloomy imagery that none of us simple-minded
folk could ever hope to understand. Users of Tumblr are fiercely loyal to the
platform and will continue to use it until Yahoo pulls the plug.
Although it may sound as though I dislike the
website, I do feel that it has some redeeming qualities. It’s rare to find a
blogging platform that offers so much customisation. It reminds me of the
Myspace days, when I spent hours making sure that my background GIF was
properly aligned.
