I do believe quite a few of us own a Tumblr account, myself included.

Okay, so-o... I have noticed that there are a lot of 'thematical blogs' which reblog concret and specific stuff. For example, there is a blog which collects posts containing anything about a pairing from some fandom, of maybe even just one character and so on.
But how do they find those posts? Just browsing tumblr for them? Or people somehow uploading stuff? There are submission boxes in blogs but... I don't think they are working proper. I mean, if somebody drops something in submission box, moderator can publish submittet post, but not reblog something from sender's blog! Or people are just sending links to original posts they want to share and then moderator goes by link and reblogs? O_o Idk...

I am not sure I described all this properly though... -_-

Wat. Didn't get your question at all.

Basically, how tumblr works :
User A posts original content (OC).
27549 other users repost User A's OC.

End of the story.

Tumblr has a search function which finds posts tagged as the search query. For example if I decide to search for "Wallace" I will be able to find any posts which have been tagged as #Wallace. I also assume these blogs also follow blogs which reblog a lot of that stuff as well so they can reblog it to their blog.

What if it was Google that did it?
Do you think it would affect YouTube even more?

[Serza5]

If Google got Youtube and made all (original) videos on Tumblr be Youtube videos that might actually be a blessing.

Ah, I know it already.
I just want to ask how do people share their content in specialized blogs or how to say...

For example. There is a blog 'fans of X' which reblogs anything connected with X. Such blogs sometimes are running by few people. And there is a user Z, who has made something with X, posted it, but even with a lot of tags etc, his post haven't been noticed. And he wants to share it in 'fans of X' blog, because there are a lot of people interested in X who follow it.
So what does he do? Sends a link to his post with X content into a submission box of 'fans of X' blog?

Still not sure if I described it right. >_<

How do you think it could have affected YouTube?

Meh, seeing how Google seem to be trying to shove Google+ to everything, I'd think they'd probably try to make something of those two, and less with YouTube.
