Tumblr is a free online service making it easier than ever to create an attractive, basic blog packed with website links, favorite quotes, photos, audio clips, and videos. Without knowing a scrap of code, you can be creating a Tumblr blog like this one in seconds.
Since I started blogging back in 2000, I can’t tell you how many friends have started and abandoned blogs. (Blogging over the long haul requires more stamina and dedication – and, some would say, self-delusion — than you think.) Writing entries takes time and energy, and building an audience can take months or years.
But, by design, Tumblr encourages you to post the sort of short, quick blog entries most anyone can author. Posting a link to a website requires little more than a single click; posting a photo, audio file, or even a video is almost just as easy. Click on any one of a dozen or so attractive themes … and voila! Instant blog.
If you’re curious about blogging, and in need of a blog solution that’s quick and easy to learn and use, Tumblr might just be the service for you.
