The White House Is Now on Tumblr Because of Course It Is

The Official White House Tumblr sounds like a parody website that would be full of political snark and GIFs. But it's not a parody. The recently launched page is actually the official Tumblr for the White House. Like, for real.

But that doesn't mean there isn't snark and GIFs. This is Tumblr after all. Launched last week, it's part of the Obama administration's commitment to making this "the most open and accessible administration in history." Of course, the Tumblr also promises many pictures of Bo the White House dog because it knows where it's internet bread is buttered.

Check out some of the first photos and GIFs from the White House's foray into Web 2.0.
