    Similar to the example given in class early in the semester about the young boy who asked for donations because of a disorder he had, this article also involves Reddit and users donating money to help those in need. The article is an example of concept of imagined communities. It features that idea of people from all over the world being unified because they read something on the same website and thus sharing an experience together by helping the orphanage.

  • Within the first few weeks of using the blogging network, my perception of online communities completely changed. The concise nature of Tumblr allowed to me convey so much with so little.
  • Tumblr has connected the world into a single platform of creative genius.
  • I don’t write this to brag; I say this because Tumblr is influential and powerful. As Tumblr approaches a bright future, the company needs to continue pushing the envelope to maintain dominance in the industry. More importantly, Tumblr needs to remain competitive so they can continue to attract the creators that make the community what it is. Now the question is, what’s next?

  • Tumblr doesn’t require users to write long posts to convey messages—gifs can do that. It doesn’t require users to write long posts to convey ideas—videos can do that. It doesn’t require users to recite their favorite sayings—quotes can do that. Tumblr has taken the traditional notion of blogging and has successfully thrown it out the window. They’ve continued to challenge the notion that blogging isn’t only about words.

The main point of this article is how Tumblr can connect the world with one single social media platform. It emphasizes how little can say much more. It first starts out with Tumblr's current good aspects, and later details the future of Tumblr.
