The Tumblr team is doing their best to provide the best features as well. They have added the option to add static pages to your Tumblr blog recently and now there are also dead simple ways in order to directly upload videos in your blog.
Tumblr is now planning to launch two revenue generating features this month. The details are scarce but it is known that these features will be powered by a widget. The success of this revenue generating feature of Tumblr is viewed as paving the way for micro blogging networks – an area that is traditionally devoid of revenue.
