OK, I started one of those Tumblr things. Problem is, I don’t know what to do with it. So…what should I do with it?

Find images that stir your soul, that speak to your very core even if you can't figure out exactly why. Download them, scan them, snap a picture of them with your camera, then upload them to your tumblr to share with the world.
They will eventually form a collage that will tell people more truth about you than you will be able to tell with words.
Or you can just load it up with LOL cats. Cal has a few I'm sure he won't mind sharing.
damned if I know
Hey! I just started one too. What a coinkydink! I'm still trying to figure it out. If you figure it out, please fill me in!

I like M.D. Jackson's idea. Or maybe you could devote it exclusively to music. The world needs more music blogs.
I agree with MD. I use them to inspire posts and to collect images for posts. I look at my archive at times and I am proud of my collection and what it says about me. Sure, lots of Selena pics but that is okay.

Don't yet have one, but Kal will be along soon and tell you the 100's of things you can do. I think dogs with funny captions is a great idea..
I had heard of Tumblr, but had no idea what it was, so I did, you know, what you do: I Googled it. As far as I can tell, Tumblr can best be described as, "TweetBookFlickBlogr." Is it possible to be all things to all people? Time will tell.
Interesting, and perhaps a bit serendipitous: the captcha word for this comment is, "spaces."
I have heard mumblings and rumblings from "the kids" that they really don't want tumblr going mainstream. They say no one should really talk about it so it doesn't lose its *cool* factor.
And then I saw a funny tweet a week or so ago. Something like…
Tumblr is not Fight Club. Only Fight Club is Fight Club.
lol
So, I'm probably extremely uncool talking about it in a comment thread! 🙂
