We should probably avoid using Instagram in examples. It's such an insane outlier that it doesn't make sense to compare anything to it.

- BuddhaSource 13y agoTumblr is very similar to Instagram and should be considered as example. The overlap between Instagram and Tumblr users in the early days is huge. Both are targeted at young crowd with similar taste graph. As a Platform Tumblr has great potential in spreading the content. Reblogs works just like retweet and a good content can potentially go viral. That also includes rebloging of promotional content. I personally feel people who don't use Tumblr see this as yet another blog site. They have the best mobile app to post pics, stories, videos & even audio. After Instagram, I am slowly getting addicted to Tumblr's mobile app.
- mistircek 13y agoI think Instagram acquisition and this are not similar cases. Instagram was a direct competitor of a core product of Facebook: Photo Sharing while there's no such competition in Tumblr case.
