The term blogging is kind off too huge for ordinary folks. At the same time, the term micro-blogging is too small either. So what’s in between? Well that’ what Tumblr is all about. 

I have been recently seeing lots of sites running on Tumblr. And I must say, it’s pretty good for a free service although the world’s going free. All you have to do is to sign up for an account at Tumblr and begin posting immediately. Its more of a blog but just smaller. You get to post all those regular stuffs like videos & images. 

Most net show websites run Tumblr as it’s completely easy to maintain. You could get a domain name and point it to your Tumblr account. It’s a bit tricky but yet possible. More details regarding that could be found on the developers FAQ’s. 

On the other hand, the whole look and feel is customizable. CSS could be directly edited and yes you can even have advertisements such as Google’s Adsense, YPN, Widget-bucks and so on. One of the highlights from the Tumblr community would be, Jake & Amir. If you have never heard about this show, I would recommend you to watch it. Its funny & worth it.
