Question of the Week

Question of the Week #69: Books on Tumblr

We recently launched DailyLit books on Tumblr, a cool blogging platform. You can read (and share) Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Art of War, or Emily Dickinson's Poems on Tumblr.

Our question for you is this: what should we call these books on Tumblr? Normal Tumblr blogs are called Tumblogs. So, should we go with Tumblooks? Tumblebooks? Tumbooks? Or something different?

  • I like Tumblooks.

    The only other one I can think of is TumblReads.

  • ubmlerBooks would be good, as it gives your books an association with this great blog. By the way, Tumbler offers full fledge tools to make a complete website, you should go with it.

  • I like the sound of larson's Tumblrtomes! In keeping with DailyLit, you could use TumblrLit.

    To me, Tumbooks sounds more like you're going to need TUMS after reading. Also.. a little too close to Dumbooks.

  • All these cutesy names make my teeth ache. Why not do something outside the box and simply call it what it is? Then again, after you called it a "cool" blogging platform, what did I expect? Somewhere Sun Tzu, Hunter, & Lenny are chuckling...
