So here is the problem I currently have with blogging, in the past I had the time and the energy to write lengthy enough posts that it seemed worthy of posting.
In the past I felt that if I wasn't writing at least 500-600 words it wasn't worth posting. Now, with work, family and friends I don't have the time to sit down and write those types of posts. The thoughts I want to share tend to be 200 or 300 words.
While I enjoy a lot of the changes Blogger has made in the recent past, I think it is still geared towards an old way of blogging that focuses on longer, meatier posts. In contrast, I find that a website like Tumblr has a format that supports posts that are somewhere between tweets and longer blog posts. I've really enjoyed looking at other people's tumblr pages. They seem more dynamic and engaging. It also seems like their is a more active community on Tumblr. Furthermore, Tumblr 'share' buttons are prominent on other sites and it makes it easier to share photos and links via Tumblr than Blogger.
Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions on Blogger v Tumblr.
