After learning more about Tumblr, I decided to see what all the hype was about. I'll be honest, I didn't really understand the point of Tumblr when I first heard about it. I just thought it was an updated version of Facebook.
So I caved and got a Tumblr account. I found a few of my friends I knew had Tumblr and began to "follow" them. Half an hour later, I could see why Tumblr can be so addicting. For me, Tumblr became a black hole of memes, videos, pictures and opinions. You really get to know more about people through their interests and ideas they share.
However, I am not completely won over. This may sound snooty, but I don't care very much about the innermost workings of people's minds, especially those I don't personally know. There's such a thing as too much information, people. If you want to spill your guts, buy a journal. I understand that Tumblr might be a good fit for those who don't mind sharing their thoughts with the world. But honestly, I'd rather restrict my opinions and feelings to a select circle of friends.
