December 5, 2010 will be the date that people craved on their head (or maybe heart) as the milestone of 2010.
Yes, it is the damn date when Tumblr went down.
The site has been down for 24 hours, the longest outage of this company’s history. People cursed. Some made this.
The statement says it all. Tumblr has becomes a crush for more that 11 million people. The popularity has gained Tumblr a die-hard fans and loyal followers. Today, the internet next big thing already has more than 11,039,276 users and more than 2,357,992,341 posts (per December 18, 2010).
Behind the curtains, meet the internet prodigy Mr. David Karp (http://davidslog.com). In 2007, while people hyped up with the needs of connecting with other people, Karp backed up a little step. He believes that blogging is still the ultimate weapon to approach people online. Amazed by the tumblelog (according to Wikipedia is a variation on traditional blogging that favors very short, mixed media posts with little or no commentary),Karp then launched Tumblr.
“Is Karp the only panelist drinking a beer? Respect.”
