Stumbledupon.com is an internet site that lets you "stumble upon" websites for you to view based on your personal likes.  It's based on it's users personal suggestions on what is a quality website, or web page or video.  Stumbleupon members vote  on the web page presented to them with a thumbs up or a thumbs down. The more members that vote it a quailty site, the higher it ranks. The more that vote it a thumbs down, the less it is seen.  It's free to join and you stumbleupon your sites through a toolbar (spyware free) that is added to your Foxfire or Internet Exporer. When you join you'll answer a few questions about your likes, so when you click on your "stumble" button the toolbar, the site will know what kind of websites or videos to send you.  View the site and give it a up or down vote, or leave a comment in the comment section.  I always make sure I rate every website, because this updates your profile, which is kind of like a blog record of the sites you've visted.  After awhile, the site begins to reconize what you like and  connects you with other users that have common interests with you.  It's a site worthy of your time.  It's fun, educational and you get to meet other with the same interest and hobbies as you.  I do warn you this site is very addicting.  Once you start surfing it, you can't wait to see what site you are going to "stumble upon" next.
