The White House Joins Tumblr, Promises GIFs

Here Come GIFs From The White House

The first administration of social media just ventured farther into the Interwebs.

On Friday afternoon the White House launched its own Tumblr account, establishing its presence in a world known for Ryan Gosling mash-ups and Texts From Hillary Clinton.

It was a surprisingly late entrance for an administration that's already a deft player on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

So will the White House be reblogging "Lesbians That Look Like Justin Bieber"? Not quite.

"We’ll post things like the best quotes from President Obama, or video of young scientists visiting the White House for the science fair, or photos of adorable moments with Bo," the first entry on the blog reads. "We want to see what you have to share: Questions you have for the White House, stories of what a policy like immigration reform means to you, or ways we can improve our Tumbling."

"And yes, of course there will be GIFs."

Phew.

Check out the image the White House shared with their first entry below:
