Seems pretty pointless since there are Asks/Fan mails already. What does instant messaging have to do with a blog service anyway? Tumblr's strength is being a content publishing platform, an easier Wordpress/Blogger. So they should be developing new types of content to publish. For example polls would be cool (since Twitter added them recently). But IM functionality is just a distraction from posting new content.
- SpaceCadetJones 11y agoI think you're missing how a lot of people (I would argue most) are using Tumblr. From what I've seen most content on most pages is not original content, but rather reposting content relating to their blogs theme or whatever they happen to fancy. It's a much more social platform in comparison to WordPress.
