How did YOU discover tumblr?

dawnowar:

Question posed by mascarah:

I was listening to the net@nite podcast at work one day. Well before anyone on tumblr had ever heard of Julia. Leo and Amber were interviewing some really excited guy called David Karp who tried to tell me he somehow made blogging fun again. I was intrigued, but skeptical until I tried it for myself. I was hooked instantly.

I found out about tumblr the same way…who knew how addicting it would become?!
