Yesterday I set up a tumblr account. You can find me here.
Don't ask me why I did it, specifically, because I still haven't figured that one entirely myself. As it is, "keeping up" with one forum, if you will, is something I am still trying to sort out and manage. I guess initially I feel like I can more easily and with less scrutiny (self that is), post to and leverage the tumblr canvas, letting me try out a larger number of ideas and approach without the need to think too much about structure or content. Lets see how this goes.
My first take is that this community is like a beginner's blog tool meets del.icio.us meets twitter (grant me some slack for the analogy) meets facebook...??? In other words, you can easily create your "typical" post but then post links and videos and audio files, etc, all from within the provided interface. It is very nice and clean and practical.
Let me know if you join so that I can "follow" you (see, there's your twitter reach).
