A tumblelog (also known as a tlog or tumblog) is a variation of a blog that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, tumblelogs are frequently used to share the author's creations, discoveries, or experiences while providing little or no commentary.
Uses
Most tumblelogs act as compilations of links and online discoveries. However, it is becoming more popular for tumblers to use their blogs for artistic and creative endeavors. The short manner of tumblelogs makes it simple for artists to showcase new photos or artwork.
