Tumblr creator doesn't find the homeless funny
David Karp, the creator of Tumblr, may be working on a new project with the attention-seeking Jakob Lodwick, but he doesn't want anything to do with Lodwick's attention-seeking means. Karp called Silicon Alley Insider while on vacation in Puerto Rico to deny any involvement with the Norbum project:
I'm not involved with Norbum, I don't know what it is, and I would never make fun of homeless people.
The blogging-tool creator may be willing to take Lodwick's money and share some office space with him, but the duo's involvement has yet turned the young developer into a fameballing clone of Lodwick. (Photo by Marco Arment)
