  2. urbanape answered: I’m trying to do just that. I migrated over here from a self-hosted PyBlosxom blog with all my previous content.
  3. pwinn answered: Sure.
  4. thestoryofb answered: yep, you can even use Tumblr as a CMS for your own blog site, if you want.
  5. toldorknown answered: You could always click ‘create a new tumblelog’ over there on the right and make one dedicated to longer posts. @cleversimon: INSTAPAPER NOW!
  6. timestolen answered: Post it. If someone doesn’t want to read it, s/he’ll skim or skip.
  7. frageelaytwit answered: I’m long-winded and try to keep tumblr posts shorter; works better for this medium. Favorite character from The Wire & why?
  8. cleversimon answered: I like the longer-form posts, but they tend to get missed if I’m reading on my phone. I guess I need Instapaper or something.
  9. sniffyjenkins answered: Absolutely.
  10. daniellei answered: I was not. Had 36 pages of posts to catch up on yesterday. Who was your first kiss and do you still talk to them?
  11. inthefade answered: I do it all the time. Don’t know if it works for tumblr or my followers, but it works for me.

Can Tumblr work for long posts?

I am currently engaged in a debate with someone who may or may not exist solely in my head about whether Tumblr can actually be used for long, non-funny, (yet, obviously, hopefully interesting) entries?

2 I opened myself up for questions Where you aware of it? Apparently not many are. So I repeat myself.
