I don't think it's Tumblr, but what about Posterous?
For websites where the blog is just a part of the site and not the central component, Wordpress is overkill. And maintenance of updates and plugin updates is a pain once you start getting beyond one or two installs.
I've been thinking that it's time to reevaluate the blogging options out there rather than defaulting to a big-ass Wordpress install for every client that just wants a simple blog as part of their site.

- ianbishop 16y agoI would make the argument (as a 20-something) that there are far more 20-somethings on Tumblr than there will ever be on Posterous. Posterous has always felt, in its design, to be minimal and content based. It is not about posting cool photos you found online, funny youtube clips and a quote out of the book you're reading. That's what 20-somethings are doing with tumblr.
