Has it been three years already?!
February was a month of big milestones for us, possibly the most exciting of which was that you guys viewed Tumblr more than a BILLION times. That’s 36 million times a day, 25,000 times a minute, and more than 400 times a second!
To say thank you, we have some beautiful, free, and awesome features we’ll be pushing this week.
And follow us on Twitter for some special news.
Thank you!!
