Has anyone else here purposefully NOT looked up “Tumblr” – thinking every single related post on Fluther (and there have been many – too many) is simply marketing effort to push their product?
I’m sure the Mods watch this sort of thing carefully, but every single time I see “Tumblr” I’m struck with pangs of doubt as to their legitimacy. It feels like a marketing push to me – trying a little too desperately to get their name out there.
I was just curious if anyone else felt the same.
And if so, do you discount the company/product for doing such a thing?
I don’t think this is a [Meta] question (unless Fluther has some business relationship with Tumblr, and thus allows/condones/creates it). It’s more about how people feel about products and services that go out of their way to shove themselves down your throat.
I just did a search on Fluther for “Tumblr” and not surprisingly out of the first page of questions that returned, all but one original poster had a pittance of Lurve.
