I love Tumblr. Its a very visual medium where you can showcase great images. I like the laid back quality of the news I find there. A lot of stuff gets mocked and people have fun with pop culture, etc. I read a lot of news, long form journo and off the beaten path stories I don’t find elsewhere. I plan to focus more on Tumblr posts. http://www.tumblr.com/blog/coolfunnykat
