NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — When emotions deserve more than words, but not a FaceTime call, there are GIFs.
These animated wonders of the web can convey everything from Sunday morning bliss, to the tedium of the hour-long conference call to prep for the next conference call.
Tumblr understands these needs. The Yahoo-owned blog network released a new GIF search engine and publishing tool Thursday to help.
Now when you create a new post, and want to add a GIF, click on the “+” button. A search browser will pop up, allowing you to look for and share that perfect animated illustration.
Best of all, if you’re the first person to create or to share a certain GIF on Tumblr, the site will notify you when other people use that GIF.
Before the new features were released, you had to find GIFs elsewhere — on Giphy, Imgur, or other places on Tumblr — and copy and paste them into a post.
Last week, Facebook made it easier for people to share GIFs online too, so now… GIF lovers can all celebrate.
