[Blindtlk] Tumblr

[Jason Terryn]

Sean, yes, that's been my experience too. A friend created my account and I
messed around with it a little, but so far it's just been sitting there and
from the feedback here it looks like it will have to remain that way.

I have a blogspot and a facebook but those are more personal. I wanted a
tumblr because it's much more popular for various fandoms, etc. Oh well.

Thanks everyone!
Jason
