Home is where the Dashboard Is by Stephanie Santoyo

Who said location must be a physical destination? What if one does not want to physically approach a location yet desires to go elsewhere? A location can be accessed through psychological and physical terms. However, in the current time, a destination may also be reachable on the internet with the aid of a mobile or technological device. A destination that will assert that task is Tumblr. Tumblr is a website that is attainable online and is a venue for many people including myself to share and communicate personal expressions utilizing several elements offered by the site itself. A place where one can be themselves and comfortably coexist with others. Besides not being able to teleport food from a screen, what else would one desire that Tumblr does not offer? Being attentive of the material provided as well as why the program constructs significance within itself will array an insight to the clear perspective on why Tumblr is an overall great port.
            The following review will consist of factors pertaining to the criteria regarding the components of Tumblr. Such criteria will be in forms of initial impressions such as: ease of access, organizational layout, and other items in relation to construct a civil evaluation, which will hopefully build a fair and sincere insight on the genuine quality of Tumblr.
            In introduction , (for the sake of ground basics) as stated before , Tumblr is a free social network (also known as a website or blog) interpreted as a general export invented by David Karp , established on February in the year 2007. Tumblr was constructed with the motive for young and older people to post, like and reblog varying content with the aspiration to share and express oneself through the outlook of a social entwined blog. Individually, I have sustained a personal Tumblr account since the year of 2012. To this day, I have not been disappointed by the program and my satisfaction only seems to increase as the days go by. Being an active and avid user of Tumblr, I can put forward nonetheless a fair review of the site itself.
            First of all, Tumblr is accessible through several devices as long as there is an internet connection. By this I mean, as long as one has admittance to technology accompanied by internet such as a computer or mobile device, Tumblr is obtainable. Tumblr offers either the web point of access known as “www. Tumblr.com” or the app, which is known to be highly more beneficial to others. Although both forms propose the same points, the app happens to limit certain things that tend to be displayable on the website that are not on the app, in concern to customization. However, both make customization permissible. Customization is a key factor when it comes to anything and the fact that Tumblr offers that, is a plus. In salutation to actually logging onto the application, it is quite simple. Ones information pertaining to signing in is secured by an email and a password and if anything does happen to occur to the safety state of the information, the site of Tumblr has established steps in relation to reinforcing the security of ones information. Post to logging onto the actual application, Tumblr performs a clever form of interacting with the user before one is even logged on which immediately creates an environment that causes the user to look forward to using the media beforehand.
            Immediately after one is logged on, one is taken to the “dashboard”. Similar to a vehicles dashboard, the dashboard is the technical home of the application which contains all the feeding compartments that displays active content in use.  In the dashboard is where one is destined to find the endless, sorting distributions of shared media. The media involved in the dashboard is placed according to the postings of accounts in which one follows or postings one personally did.
            All classifications of accounts take place in Tumblr. One is bound to find accounts whom interest oneself. Once one encounters an account that set interest, the next step would be to follow that profile by the click of a button. Afterwards, the content that destined the specific account posts, would display on ones dashboard. If for some reason one does not wish to follow a certain account anymore, one can candidly unfollow that account in the same sequence one followed; the click of a button. That act would then get rid of that persons feed on his or her dashboard.
            Now, take into consideration that Tumblr motions all sorts of media. In other cases, one would have to log onto specific applications to reach certain types of media, which occasionally only offer one sort of media per program. In contrast, Tumblr offers it all in one simple dashboard. Music, pictures, pieces of writing,videos, gifs (which are only offered on tumblr) along with other numerous postings, are all available on one program.
            In the process of being active on Tumblr, the mode to post is once again, simple. In order to post something to the dashboard, one must act upon the simple task of selecting the type of media one intends to post and by following the selection of “post”, the media is assigned. Completely uncomplicated. Due to some users getting accelerated with the wonderful program of Tumblr, one is not able to post after 250 posts. Anyhow, with all the content Tumblr has to offer, reaching the post limit will not distract the users activation on tumblr.
            In accumulation, being familiar with other social networking, I understand in order to view a sort of media on another social network, it will often take one to a different location due to having the ability to want to view a certain form of media. Tumblr asserts that anything is operative through the dashboard itself. Having attainability to several items while utilizing one source is known to be a high demand that people tend to prefer and Tumblr assures that all in one field; known as once again, the dashboard.
            Being an avid user of the Tumblr application I would definitely grant the program its five out of five stars rating for several reasons. One element that certainly influences that certain rating is the fact that Tumblr is very well rounded and includes several aspects of life within a program and is simple to use! Although there are several reasons on why Tumblr deserves such rating, a very high condition that marks the rating is that the Tumblr staff is quite sufficient and caring of their users. If a Tumblr user happens to have an issue with the program or is looking for improvement, the Tumblr staff makes sure to improve Tumblr to its best construction and provide the best mechanisms for the Tumblr community. If I were to state every single reason for my position regarding the well being of tumblr, this document would be infinite.
            I would definitely recommend it to every single person on the planet. Personally, once I discovered the site, it wiped out any other strong devotion or interest I had on other social accounts before, due to it being so efficient and applicable to one. I felt as if the program was constructed just for me and all the elements were accurately soothing. Once again, Tumblr is occupied with all possible personalities and a variety of passions. Concepts such as food, sports, humorous content and outstandingly prevention accounts advocating in regards to current issues (such as self harm and suicide or any of other several negatively impacting issues) are made aware about on Tumblr and there are certain experts localized on the account to aid and spread the word for anyone looking for a hand to refer to.

            Tumblr is a universal institute for anyone and everyone. Those ranging from the age of specifically teenagers and up would definitely appreciate what Tumblr offers as I do. If one is searching for a destination to confidently and comfortably express oneself, Tumblr is definitely that place. Now these days, the internet is rapidly growing and it is a world within itself. With that being said, Tumblr is a world within the internet that should definitely have visitation by many. Having personal contact with other websites that have left me and others down or are a waste of time, Tumblr is the complete opposite. Who knew that a technological device accompanied with an internet connection was eligible to lead to something with a smile or any other emotion for that matter, Tumblr makes that possible. I have a strong compassion for Tumblr and I would strongly identify it as a compatible rating for current and upcoming users of the lovely environment.
