Tumblr is more of a pics-form twitter. Other types of content don't get much love there.

I don't know what social network would qualify as long-form twitter, to be honest.

Honestly, I think long-form twitter is just twitter + a personal blog. When you want to write an article, you post a link to your twitter.
