Hey So I Have Also Asked This Question Before But As A Result Of Taking A Communications Class This Semester,

Hey so I have also asked this question before but as a result of taking a communications class this semester, I now know a devastating fact for all twitter users: twitter is, according to my communications textbook, a website of the Exact Same Genre as tumblr!

Sounds unrealistic, I know, but you know how tumblr is a blogging website? Well, specifically, it's technically a microblogging website. A microblog, according to my textbook, is basically a normal blog, except that "the format and technology encourage shorter posts and content." Sounds like tumblr to me. Even if we do have long posts (like this one is becoming), a shorter format is more encouraged.

Side note, the name "tumblr" apparently comes from "tumblelogs," an earlier term for microblogs. So yeah, it's definitely microblogging.

Now that we've established that tumblr is a microblogging website, have this direct quote from my textbook:

"Today, perhaps the most popular microblog is Twitter"

And here's a picture, in case you don't believe me:

(It does also list tumblr specifically as a microblog as well, in case you were worried.)

So that's why. Because tumblr and twitter are the same exact kind of website.

Also, I should note that any "status update" feature is microblogging too. My textbook is very informational <3

(textbook used is Converging Media 6th edition by John V Pavilk and Shawn McIntosh, info referenced is on pages 200-201)

So.... Twitter users might be migrating to Tumblr. Time to show them who's alpha.

Why are they comin here why
