Could someone refresh my memory on how Tumblr makes its revenue?

  If you really want to know why don't you find out and then come back to tell us instead of making fatuous comments

    Love to, but Tumblr's site is down… so I can't check.

  Sponsored posts, premium themes, promoted posts. Pretty sure they're far from profitable, but they're bringing some revenue in. http://www.quora.com/Tumblr/How-does-Tumblr-make-money http://www.quora.com/Tumblr/How-does-Tumblr-make-money http://www.businessinsider.com/tumblr-revenues-2012-9 http://www.businessinsider.com/tumblr-revenues-2012-9

    If they are not profitable, it means that the downtime is actually improving their financials...;)

      Chuckled at that, given their scale I'm sure they are already at fixed rates for colo space and bandwidth.
