I Don't Get Tumblr

I wish someone would explain to me the whole Tumblr thing. Originally AK suggested that we set up From A To B on tumblr, which I did. However, within moments I started to hate it as:

A. I couldn't figure out how to add another author.
B. The help section had nothing regarding how I could do so.
C. The help section had nothing that was actually helpful. Observe:



Actually, I don't really trust a website's own help page to tell me if it's better than its competition. ("Is Tumblr better/worse than Blogger, TypePad, FaceBook, etc.?"). My frustration grew today, when I thought (after Mr. Shea's urging) that I should give it another go and try out a new Tumblr log, or blog, or page, whatevs.

However, I was un able to log into any other page than the blank AtoB page. You'd think the "help page" would offer information such as "Is it possible to have more than one Tumblr Log per e-mail?" But no. No such information was available.

So... What's so great about these pages? Danny has one. Jessica has one. Colin does too. Amanda has one too (which she added to on Saturday remotely from her iPhone which iAdmit was pretty nifty). So far, I'm unimpressed.

There, Danny, I blogged about it. Now, convince me I'm wrong.

I, on the other hand, wanted to like Tumblr. But, alas, I concur.
