Yes, it’s totally silly that one year after launching Tumblr, we’re moving the official Tumblr blog off of Wordpress because it was too much work to update.

We want to spotlight all of the neat stuff happening on Tumblr.  So today we’re announcing the official Tumblr tumblelog:  staff.tumblr.com

There’s a lot we want to do here.  In addition to showing off the new features we’re building, we’re dying to brag about everything we see you folks doing. To cover it all, we’re inviting some new members of the Tumblr family to contribute.  Introductions to follow.

Thanks, everyone!

Dan Meth:

It occurred to me last night that this little head is seen by more people each day than anything else I’ve ever drawn. It’s the default Tumblr avatar.

For years I worked in the same office with David Karp, the wonderkind Internet entrepreneur. In April 2007, he walked over to my desk and asked me to design a little head logo for this new application he was building called “Tumblr.”

I drew a couple versions and he picked one. 

It’s still the default avatar (for the time being!)

Go follow our friend, Dan Meth, and check out his videos if you haven’t seen them yet!
