I really enjoy Tumblr. Probably not Tumblr culture, but I follow those who have similar tastes. I really like the ability to keep a digital scrapbook of things I find visually appealing and the fact that others might find delight in it.

Pinterest, though, I cannot stand. Don't ask me why - my vocabulary crumbles into a series of grunts and rambling.

I'll come back an edit this post to include some of my favourite Tumblogs later tonight when I'm home.

I've always had a tumblr that I use as my online moodboard. I don't really have any love for the community on tumblr, but it's a great way to collect images/videos/ideas in one place.

We've just started up an Aus Infront Tumblr. Right now we're not sure if it's something we need, or something we could sustain, or not, but it's fun. Check and follow: http://ausinfront.tumblr.com/

I love it. I check my personal tumblr account everyday just as much as ffffound. I also used it to built our band website, just to simplify things. People can follow us, and all the posts we make will stream through to facebook and twitter. Makes life a lot easier.

This Tumblr is one of my favourites. **Warning** it's very NSFW

I'm a big fan of the way this person sticks to a specific theme within their posts. I love that you can get an idea of their mood or theme for the day according to their posts.
I think that's what the excellent blogger's/ tumblr'ers (?) do:
They have a cohesive sense of narrative. I hate blogs/ tumblrs that are disjointed and don't have a clear idea in terms of what they are trying to say.

I've only recently started playing around with Cinemagram (an app that allows you to create gifs of your videos on your iphone).
It was only a matter of time before someone created a Tumblr for them:

That's a goody @jubbjubb It's so great to see a great publication handle the medium in a unique way.

This is a gif/ historical photographic one I came across yesterday.

So awesome to see Time embrace Tumblr. Love the infinite scroll too (not much of a Tumblr if you don't use infinite scroll IMHO!). Anyone know of any more big companies out there using Tumblr?
