With so many new websites, blogs, videos and pictures added to the internet every hour you may never see some of the best ones because of the way traditional search engines work.

StumbleUpon is a unique search engine that allows you to surf the web and discover all kinds of things based on your own, individual interests. Just register, fill out a short survey on your interests, download a toolbar, click and go. Each time you click on the Stumble! icon a new website will appear for your enjoyment. Next to the Stumble! icon on the toolbar will be two little fists. One is for thumbs up [I like...

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... read full review »

Here is a new, very interesting idea in a site that takes you to places of interest via a toolbar. Stumble Upon is a toolbar that has downloaded ideas from thousands of visitors who have been part of a place of interest to you, so Stumble Upon tells you to stumb;le overthere to check it out.  No more web surfing with StumbleUpon.

 As of today they have Animation, Arts, Bizarre, Computers, Video Games, Humor, Music, Sci Tech.  So you can add to points of interest with your reviews or write ups.  Great photography also shown by many users too.  As a BZZAgent I was asked to review it & sent it...

I used to use this site quite a bit. It's very simple to use, simply check boxes for the things you find interesting. Easy-peasy. You can choose to recieve e-mails or use a toolbar, which is seriously fun. you hit one button, which looks like the stumble upon logo, and it takes you to this totally random site, but it bases its choices of sites on your ratings and interests. So the more you use it, the better it works. There are many sites out there that do similar things, but I think this one is the best. 

The only real drawback is that it can be a serious time-waster. Every click brings you something...

I discovered StumbleUpon when I switched to the Firefox Browser and I am in strong like with the concept.  You create a profile of the things that you are interested in and StumbleUpon directs you to sites that match.  I have been directed to some fun sites that I would have never found on my own.  StumbleUpon also offers a filter so that you can set the limit on adult content.

My con with the site is that over time I end up clicking on sites that I have seen many, many times through StumbleUpon. 

Overall I like StumbleUpon and will continue to click away.

This site is really cool. You pick your interests and from there you stumble throughout the world wide web. You will find some really cool places by stumbling. I am addicted. It is a lot of fun and very entertaining. I like animals and love to draw and have found tons of the cutest pictures and some very good tutorials for drawing. I highly recommend this site.
