Tumblr Down!: Is Tumblr Down: Tumblr Back Online: Tumblr has exploded in popularity recently, but along with success comes a big, fat target on its back. Spammers have taken to the service to avoid Facebook filters and redirect users to phony YouTube pages.
The main reason the service has seen such a rise in growth (450 million page views a month!) is that users are catching on to the very flexible and forgiving nature of the rapidly gaining social networking site's publishing tools.
Whereas most blogging sites look down upon posts with little or no written content (the big search engines may not even index articles with less than 150 words, unless the content is from a big media outlet) Tumblr basically doesn't care how short or long the content is. And the search engines seem to love it.
Most users take advantage of the easy controls in the publishing suite to post high-quality photos with a seemingly infinite range of resolution and a wide array of display options, from thumbnail to poster-board. It's like scrap booking on steroids.
