thanks for the information. I never knew wordpress emails support adding tags like tumblr up to now. It was really helpful. The reason I switched from wordpress to tumblr is wordpress started displaying ads on my blog as they do with some blogs at some times. But if yahoo buy tumblr should consider switching to wordpress or blogger or some self hosting platform

  But why? Why just consider switching? Why not wait to see what, if anything, actually changes? And if those changes are for the better? You had a valid reason switching from Wordpress to Tumblr, but you don't provide one from switching away. There is so much angst from the teenage users using Tumblr that are panicking about the buyout and making similar threats. I don't expect to see that mentality without sound reasoning on HN.

    yah true I understand. But for some reason yahoo has not being good with things they buy. Flickr delicious geocities etc. So how can we be sure what they're going to do with Tumblr and how can we be sure it's going to be better? Yah i know it's too early to talk about it. Will see and wait. And from the news it seems Tumblr directors have given go signal to yahoo offer. "Forbes' Jeff Bercovici reported Tumblr's board of directors approved Yahoo!'s offer and the Yahoo! board is expected to go along with Mayer's wish to buy Tumblr. There's still a little room for things to fall apart, but it's unlikely that's going to happen. So no, the Yahoo! deal will likely not be falling apart."
