Three things I Have Learned from Reading Website’s Information on Tumblr

1)    I have learned that Tumblr was made for Journals specifically and it started with a staff of just two people!

2)    From De Rosa’s perspective, I have learned that if I want to gain my own audience by using Tumblr, then the first thing that I should gain is the appreciation and loyalty of the Tumblr’s audience, otherwise they may feel like I have only joined Tumblr to promote my other websites.

3)    I have understood this method from the Co-Editor Cory Doctorow's social media saying that "Conversation is king. Content is just something to talk about." – So the key to my social media power is through communicating.

#3 HW 3

1. I learned that only 10% of Tumblr users use tags which is really weird and a shock to me due to Tumblr being one of the most used social media platforms.

2.  Posting multimedia content on Tumblr is easier than the other media networks.

3. There is a feature on Tumblr called “Fan Mail” which allows you to send mails to bloggers you follow.

Uploading to Tumblr faces obstacles

Tumblr has been called “the Lost and Found Department of the entire Internet” (salon.com). This is a poetic way of saying that content on Tumblr is so diverse yet unique harbouring something new for everyone.

MP3s uploaded to Tumblr cannot surpass 10MB and only one audio upload is allowed per day. A maximum of 5 minutes worth of videos at 100MB can be uploaded per day.

Tumblr experienced 42.1 hours of downtime in 2011.

Question 3

I learned that only 42% of the pictures online are original, the rest are either reused or retweeted. I also learned that each Tumblr is a combination of both Wordpress and Twitter and that is one of the reasons it is unique. And thirdly I learned that Tumblr helps reach a large audience through blogging that even wordpress and twitter struggle to reach

3 things that I learned about Tumblr is that it is an easy use tool for journalists and news organizations to build audience engagement. Secondly, when engaging with the audience, Tumblr, can make you a succesfful blogger/journalist. And finally, avoid writing posts without including any visuals, your content may seem boring since many people are visual learners.
