If you were with us last week, you witnessed a mighty battle between our two winning browsers from an earlier poll, Firefox and Chrome. Almost 9,000 votes later, Firefox emerged victorious and took the crown for Favorite Mashable Browser.
Earlier this week we kicked off a new Faceoff, this time pitting Tumblr against Posterous for the simple blogging service crown. We have the winner of this contest now, drumroll please…
Tumblr ended up taking the title in a relatively close race with 51% of the vote. Many of you cited the community surrounding Tumblr as a great reason to use the tool, and many in the Posterous camp said the simplicity of posting by email was unbeatable.
Still, in the end Tumblr came out on top with 1809 votes to Posterous’s 1496 (42%). The remainder of the voters couldn’t decide, with 256 or 7% reporting being unable to choose a victor.
Thanks for tuning in to the second in our Faceoff series. Be sure to check back on Monday for the next round of dueling web services!

Week 2:
- Tumblr vs. Posterous
- WINNER: Tumblr, 1809 votes (Posterous: 1496 votes, Tie: 256 votes)
