‘Explore’ Wish List

Dear Tumblr, 

I love the Explore feature. It has been a welcome addition to my Tumblr experience. Without it, I would not discovered some great Tumblr’s (or even gain some wonderful new followers). But I would like to see even more – especially areas that I feel are missing – despite having an established sub-communities already having these discussions. Here is my wish list: [more]

Thx,

ImWithKanye

Great call. (and thanks for the recommendation!)  Related.

This is a great idea. (The suggestions, which we truncated for length, were media, TV and weather; and Josh’s suggestion on music is also worth a thought.) A couple more thoughts: DC Decoder has been pushing for an #2012Election tag, and we’re totally with them on that. It’s a realm that needs organizing. There is also always talk about splitting politics into a few different tags, which would be useful from a splitting-up-info perspective. As we’ve noted in the past, we have a lot of ideas about breaking news and would like to think of ways to do that uniquely with Tumblr. Anyone have any ideas in that department? We’re playing with some stuff ourselves on that.

I’m definitely on board with these suggestions. Also: a #humanrights tag because there’s such a big population of people who care about and blog about human rights related issues here on Tumblr. 

Since we are asking, can we have one for “European Politics” then? Or “European anything at all”? Because the US centrism of the tags is well… US Centric.
