Tumblr started with user generated content, it is now a source of content. The fact that the platform is social friendly and can be shared on other networks with the source adds to the advantage and credibility. The platform is being used by bloggers but the success more or less could be attributed to the fast moving consumer content which is short and crisp. Also, the platform thrives on providing a visual experience.
