And now it’s time for Tumblr to taste the sweet success of this feature. The Yahoo! owned company debuted Answer Time, a new platform that aims to attract some a-listers to its Q&A sessions.
Answer Time will let users pose their questions to the guests, who in turn will answer them on their respective tumblelogs, with all the appropriate glorious paraphernalia – read GIFs and puns.
According to the announcement, there have been a series of guests so far; Among them, one may find the band Fall Out Boy and Tumblr CEO, David Karp.
Stay tuned for an updated lineup of future guests. Good move, Tumblr!
