During the interview he gives his dad, who is a dentist, business advice and shares with us how Facebook is shifting its service yet again: this time to integrate businesses into the social graph. He also talks about the new competition that Facebook is seeing from Google, Twitter, and Friendfeed. Obviously the video isn’t brand new because Friendfeed has since been acquired by Facebook :) Funny how that works out.

After a short intermission for your regularly scheduled posts, we’re changing the format a bit so that you’ll continue to get great founder interviews from people that are doing big things and making their actions talk.

###

David Karp is the founder and CEO of Tumblr. Tumblr lets you create a blog and the process to do that is refreshingly simple. They are the easiest way to share anything you find, love, hate, or create.

Tumblr is a web service that makes it easy to express yourself online in beautiful style. With Tumblr a user can create a tumblelog. A tumblelog is short-form blog that often consists of mixed media and multiple posts that flow together; the result is often a stream of consciousness of the author. Tumblr is located in New York.

In this interview, Sarah from Pop17 talks to David about his office space in NYC, and the basics of Tumblr.

Tumblr is hosting more than 15,000 custom domain names and you can post any content for FREE, they host all. As of this interview David reports that they have over 305 thousand users on Tumblr, not to shabby.
