1. Oxford/Tumblr
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my

By coincidence, the Oxford Dictionaries blog just
added a post about Tumblr English. It’s useful
if you’ve just gotten started and feel confused
by the jargon. I take issue with one premise of the
post:
Before you start your own blog, review some important
features you need to know
"It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education. Albert Einstein"
I believe that most people learn how to use tech tools better when they just start using them. If you
read everything you need to know about it first, it a) won’t make sense, because it’s
virtually context free, and b) may intimidate you into never trying it. I started Tumblr without
knowing most of these words, and so can you. However, you’ll have more fun if you learn the
jargon–even if you don’t use most of it yourself–eventually.
If you’ve started to use Tumblr but don’t feel comfortable yet, check out the post! And
yes, the Oxford University Press is on Tumblr.
