If you are looking for something between Twitter and Facebook, not too simple and too many limits, and at the same time, not too complicated and too many tabs & buttons, Tumblr sounds perfect for you!

Tumblr is one of the most popular social networking websites and microblogging platforms as well that you can use to post anything you like: text, photos, quotes, links, music, and videos; and post from anything from browser, phone, desktop, email, or wherever you happen to be; and customize everything from head to toe including themes, colors and theme’s HTML.

Before our tutorial, it’s necessary and important to know some rules and terms of posting Flash SWF content to Tumblr. When you are uploading a video or a Flash to Tumblr, it must be under 100MB, and you have a 5-minute daily limit. That means that you can upload as many videos as you want in 1 day, provided the cumulative total of time in those videos is under 5 minutes. If you need to post larger videos, you can directly embed a video from YouTube.

Follow the instructions below to upload a Flash SWF file to Tumblr in 5 easy steps:

Note: if you choose a Flash file in .swf format to upload here, it will remind you that video encoding failed because SWF cannot be recognized by Tumblr. Therefore, you need to use a Flash converter that is able to convert the .swf file to the right format that Tumblr would support.
