Contributor(s): Miki Onwudinjo

A tumblelog is a blog that supports short-form mixed media content. Tumblelog posts are brief comments that may contain audio, quotes, links, images or video.

Because the word tumblelog is so closely associated with the free social networking site Tumblr, the term has generally been replaced in the media by its synonyn, microblog.
