Well, I don't necessarily have to blast this out through Twitter. My followers on Tumblr can reblog, add a comment, or blast it through their own social media medium to have others reply. BRILLIANT!

I would like to thank Mark Coatney of Tumblr and Phoebe from Yahoo! for putting together the "Unconference" session "We've got a Tumblr. Now what?" It was very informative and, like everything else from ONA11, I came away thinking, "That was incredible."

Either way, I am on tumblr -- no thanks to WaPo and their awesome Innovations blog which inspired me.

Go figure.
