Tumblr?

Okay, so I am sure you are all very tired of seeing posts by people going, "Who is Tumblr? What is she, that all our fans commend her?" But! I have a question, brought on by thehoyden, who is, it goes without saying, a terrible person. And so, yes, this is another How Does Tumblr post. Sorry.

See, I have always rejected Tumblr as Not for Me, because walls of text are not welcome there, and I am an entirely text-based creature. And I will probably always be a more or less passive Tumblr user, but - I was considering posting, like, shorter, single-thing recs there. For recs that will never fit in a set! Or whatever! It would still be all text, though. Is that a thing I should do? OPINE AT ME, Tumblr denizens! Assuming any of you still read this text-based medium.

One thing about RSS feeds (which I use for tumblr and many other sites) - they only store a few entries and get 'washed' away as new entries are added. So there will be no way to tag and find older recs as efficiently like on LJ/DW (let me pause and laugh at the word efficient and LJ/DW because I still remember the woes of finding stuff when we moved here). So if you want to keep your recs/pics/clips alive longer than a week, I'd look for a cross-posting tool like we use here on DW.

And since I do go back and look for older recs, I'd vote for a cross-post (not a RSS feed) here on DW/LJ.
