I'm using Tumblr as a blogging platform mainly because the interface is a lot simpler than Wordpress, I don't think most people reading my blog (which is hardly anyone) would even know it's on Tumblr at first glance. Tumblr is also pretty easy to customize.
All being said, they could do somethings better to make writing long-form content easier (like a larger text entry area).
- jacquesm 12y agoI'm not a tumbler user but you could simply edit your text off-line and then cut-and-paste it into the tumbler text entry area when you're done. Much easier to re-arrange text and do things like spell checking and keeping an overview as well.
- mpdehaan2 12y agoYes, this is what I do. My point being it's a fine blogging platform, but it shows just a few signs of being used for short-form content historically. They aren't far from making it generally useful, because it pretty much already is. Also, somewhat recently, you can compose posts in Markdown, which I like.
