How to Create a Tumblr

Diana Burden

What is a tumblr, you ask? Think of it as micro-blogging on steroids. This is known as “tumblelogging”. So how does one create a tumblr? It is rather simple.

Step 1: Go to tumblr.com and enter your email address and password. Then, come up with a clever and unique URL. Some examples are: winkyfacesandmischievousgrins.tumblr.com and imgfave.tumblr.com. Now click Start Posting!

Step 2: Customize your blog! Choose a theme. There are lots to choose from, pick something that fits you.

Don’t forget to save and close.

Step 3: Make a post. There are all different types.

Give your text post a title and go crazy. There isn’t a word limit on tumblr like some other sites. *cough* Twitter.

Or maybe you want to upload a photo or two?

Step 4: Smile. You’re blog is all finished. Now have fun and try not to get too addicted.
