Link.

As the only person on the planet who still seems to care about Yahoo, I find the irony of the ultimate in old and tried buying the hip tumblr amusing.

I can only wait for the wackiness that will ensue.

I cannot see this ending well for Tumblr or those who use it.

According to what I've read, part of the deal specifies that Tumblr will still operate independently. That's something, right?

Yeah, even as a longtime Yahoo supporter I'm pretty sure by 3 years it'll join Geocities and be turned off entirely.

Yahoo is not good at this thing. And that's putting it charitably.

Watch them put ads up there in six months, tops.

Or worse, something like TUMBLR PRO.

They'll just make it a part of Yahoo and soon you'll have to go through some really stupid series of hoops to post anything.
