Stumbling Around The Internet
By Archivist on Jul 29, 2008 in Internet
I spend a lot of time on the Internet. I’m a huge fan of blogs and I have an extensive RSS feed to keep track of all of the ones that I read. I am also a big fan of the social networking sites like Digg and Mixx. So it was really no surprise that I got interested in StumbleUpon, another one of the social networking sites.
What was interesting was that it turns out that I like this one better than all of the others.
StumbleUpon is a really cool site that allows you to add a toolbar to your browser. The toolbar has a button on it that says "stumble" which will take you to a random web page that has been submitted to the site. You’d be amazed at how many different things I’ve learned about from "stumbling".
For example, I recently stumbled across a site about airsoft, something I knew nothing about. It got me curious. StumbleUpon lets you search specific keywords if you want to so I entered airsoft and found out even more. I learned about kwa guns and echo1 airsoft strategies and all kinds of stuff.
There are a lot of great social networking sites out there but I’ve never had as much fun on most of them as I have on Stumble!
