Tumblr is the quirky, indie photo blog site that quickly took over the blogosphere in the mid-2000s. It has finally made its way to the mobile space with the launch of an official Android app. This app provides the perfect way to follow creators and upload your own content to your Tumblr page directly from your phone.

Tumblr is primarily about sharing cool stuff you find on the web. You can repost content from almost anywhere or upload your own original creations, including written word posts, photographs, videos, or music tracks directly onto Tumblr. You can also link any of your Tumblr content to your external blog by linking it.

Another great feature of the app is its social aspect. Tumblr for Android will automatically detect which of your contacts are on Tumblr. You can easily add them to your followers or follow them yourself. Conversely, if you're not interested in their posts, you can simply choose to ignore them. As always, sending private messages to other users is easy, as is checking how many likes your latest post has garnered and viewing any comments or reposts.

Tumblr is a great app for blogging. However, it does come with a few drawbacks. If you're active on Tumblr, you'd be remiss to not give it a try. In all honesty, Tumblr originated as a desktop browser-based site, and it is still best viewed from a larger format. That said, if you're looking to get real-time notifications on the latest happenings on your Tumblr page, this app will do the trick quickly and easily.
