alksjdf lksfd Tumblr and the fandom user experience
Designing Interactive Systems, 2014Co-Authors: Serena Hillman, Jason Procyk, Carman NeustaedterAbstract:A growing trend is the participation in online fandom communities through the support of the blogging platform Tumblr. While past research has investigated backchannels-chatter related to live entertainment on micro-blogging sites such as Twitter-there is a lack of research on the behaviours and motivations of Tumblr users. In our study, we investigate why fandom users chose Tumblr over other social networking sites, their motivations behind participating in fandoms, and how they interact within the Tumblr community. Our findings show that users face many user interface challenges when participating in Tumblr fandoms, especially initially; yet, despite this, Tumblr fandom communities thrive with a common sense of social purpose and exclusivity where users feel they can present a more authentic reflection of themselves to those sharing similar experiences and interests. We describe how this suggests design directions for social networking and blogging sites in order to promote communities of users.

Tumblr fandoms community culture
Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work, 2014Co-Authors: Serena Hillman, Jason Procyk, Carman NeustaedterAbstract:A growing trend is the participation in online fandom communities through the support of the blogging platform Tumblr. We investigated Tumblr fandom users' motivations behind participating in fandoms, and how they interacted within the Tumblr community. Our results show that fandom users feel their Tumblr experience is "always-on" where they participate at nearly any point in the day. They have also adopted a unique set of jargon and use of animated GIFs to match their desired fandom activities. Overall, our results show that Tumblr fandom users present a unique culture, much different from other social networking sites.

trans media moments Tumblr 2011 2013
Television & New Media, 2014Co-Authors: Marty Fink, Quinn MillerAbstract:For transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, and gender nonconforming people, emergent media technologies offer new outlets for self-representation, outlets that often last for only a brief moment. This article examines trans culture on the website Tumblr during the period from March 2011, when the authors began researching the platform, to May 2013, when Yahoo! paid creator David Karp over a billion dollars for the site. Through auto-ethnographic dialogue about the loose social networks within Tumblr to which the authors contributed during this phase, the article explores ephemeral aspects of self-representation at the intersection of postmodern art practice, sexual politics, and queer subjectivities. From at least 2011 to 2013, people collectively oriented in opposition to dominant discourses of gender and sexuality used Tumblr to refashion straight cisgender norms and to create everyday art in a hybrid media space.

rolling through Tumblr characterizing behavioral patterns of the microblogging platform
Web Science, 2014Co-Authors: Ryan Compton, David L. AllenAbstract:Tumblr, a microblogging platform and social media website, has been gaining popularity over the past few years. Despite its success, little has been studied on the human behavior and interaction on this platform. This is important as it sheds light on the driving force behind Tumblr's growth. In this work, we present a quantitative study of Tumblr based on the complete data coverage for four consecutive months consisting of 23.2 million users and 10.2 billion posts. We first explore various attributes of users, posts, and tags in detail and extract behavioral patterns based on the user generated content. We then construct a massive reblog network based on the primary user interactions on Tumblr and present findings on analyzing its topological structure and properties. Finally, we show substantial results on providing location-specific usage patterns from Tumblr, despite no built-in support for geo-tagging or user location functionality. Essentially this is done by conducting a large-scale user alignment with a different social media platform (e.g., Twitter) and subsequently propagating geo-information across platforms. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first attempt to carry out large-scale measurement-driven analysis on Tumblr.

civil unrest prediction a Tumblr based exploration
International Conference on Social Computing, 2014Co-Authors: Ryan Compton, David L. AllenAbstract:This work focuses on detecting emerging civil unrest events by analyzing massive micro-blogging streams. Specifically, we propose an early detection system consisting of a novel cascade of text-based filters to identify civil unrest event posts based on their topics, times and locations. In contrast to the model-based prediction approaches, our method is purely extractive as it detects relevant posts from massive volumes of data directly. We design and implement such a system in a distributed framework for scalable processing of real world data streams. Subsequently, a large-scale experiment is carried out on our system with the entire dataset from Tumblr for three consecutive months. Experimental result indicates that the simple filter-based method provides an efficient and effective way to identify posts related to real world civil unrest events. While similar tasks have been investigated in different social media platforms (e.g., Twitter), little work has been done for Tumblr despite its popularity. Our analysis on the data also shed light on the collective micr-oblogging patterns of Tumblr.
