Trying Out Tumblr

In short, read my latest posts on Tumblr.

Over the past few days, I've been exploring Tumblr as a possible replacement option for Blogger. The reason is simple: traffic. But it's more complicated than that.

The number one reason to switch is that more people will see what I write; and after all, that's why we all write, right? Tumblr has a better built-in system for organic searches and finding new or related posts.

In addition, Tumblr is committed to updating their iOS app. This is huge because the majority of my posts are written on the go.

Finally, the reader-side format is easy to read, navigate and share.

So there you have it.

At this point, the jury is still out; but in the meantime, while I'm testing out Tumblr, you should really follow me over there:
