Tumbling with the White House: Obama on Tumblr

Taylor Wilson | @_twils The microblogging platform and social networking website known as Tumblr can now add the White House to their list of over 105.6 million blogs. The announcement came via Twitter and  just a few days after the White House joined another social network, Vine.

According to the blog's first post, it will feature a diverse selection of material, like "the best quotes from President Obama, or video of young scientists visiting the White House for the science fair, or photos of adorable moments with Bo." In its first week, the White House has quickly adapted to this platform posting GIFS and funny images of President Obama.

So far no adorable moments with Bo but we’re anxiously awaiting those.

The White House hoped the announcement would spark a discussion of how open and accessible the administration is to the American public. Join the discussion and submit your own stories, opinions and questions at whitehouse.tumblr.com. Enjoy tumbling with the White House!
