I spent a couple of months doing basically nothing but tumblr! I have since gotten bored and moved aback to DW, but I do understand some of the appeal. - much like twitter, it's very immediate. - it doesn't require as much brain power as text posts on traditional journaling sites! - endless stream of pretty! - you get caught up in the general fannishness squee - like, it's nice to see that you're not the only one flailing about [thing]!
Anyway that's how I used it. It's not really much use if you're not a fan of visual media much! And it can get really tiring because it feels like you HAVE to check your dash every day. Possibly multiple times a day. Because everyone posts so much and OMG what if you *miss something*?!
Also :|||||| at you're favorite fics being abandoned. I hate when that happens.
