On Twitter, there were a number of users who said they weren’t sure what to do.
“Tumblr not working = me having nothing to do ... ,” said one user.
“Is Tumblr down again? What am I supposed to do with my Friday night now? Go outside???” asked another.
The Next Web pointed out that the crash is “utterly embarrassing for the company” after it recently passed having 100 million blogs and 44.6 billion posts. Those figures are up from last April, when it had 50 million blogs.
