Who are you all?

A random survey of aorund 10 of my newest followers, and 8 out 10 had ‘Untitled’ as their blog name, and 6 had no posts yet.

Looks like a large migration onto Tumblr is taking place. 

Question: Where are you new tumblrers coming from? Are you leaving Facebook, or just adding Tumblr into the mix?
