No one in his right mind, outside the HN hivemind, things posterous is a serious challenge to tumblr.
- listic 16y agoI have no idea what anyone thinks about matters like those outside the HN hivemind. How do you? I started using Tumblr to jot down my notes because it looked cool and simple. To my regret, a couple times I found new "social" features on my dashboard, but that's it. I was actually afraid that this hobby project will fade away and shut down, unneeded. I was surprised to find it is not so!
- andreyf 16y agoThought this too, until I moved in with two professional (that is, paid) bloggers in NYC. Apparently, there's quite an ecosystem of tumblr "publishers" who care deeply about their tumblr follower numbers, etc.
- j_baker 16y agoI think the fact that this got 38 upvotes proves that you overestimate HN's hivemindedness.
