Could Tumblr Rise Above Facebook and Twitter?

Although Tumblr was created after Facebook and Twitter, it is actually on a steady incline towards surpassing Facebook's and Twitter's amount of viewers. Tumblr is definitely increasing in its popularity and it is easy to see why.  This new form of social media creates a happy medium between blogging and tweeting, so you can maintain your own blog while sharing it with other users on the Dashboard page. I find that I have actually begun to use Tumblr more often than Facebook and Twitter. The chart seen in this article proves how quickly Tumblr has become a favorite of social media users.  Users mostly post images and videos and many of them are so relatable that you end up laughing out loud when reading them.  Tumblr is similar to instagram, an app of iPhones where you can post pictures you have taken and share it with your followers.  The difference with Tumblr is that you can share and reblog images that other users (whom you don't know personally) have created and enhanced.  Tumblr is all about individuality and creativity while maintaing a social connection.
