The fact that our blog receives thousands of visitors from SU is a happy extra. I hope you all check out StumbleUpon and join. DO NOT start by bookmarking your own content. Like all social communities it is best to let others promote you and for you to promote others.
Find me in SU and say hello. The user name is aimClear. I only have 2 negatives about SU, which based on how I typically study things quite closely is impressive. I have noticed an anti-commercial use side to some of the stumblers, and they can easily organise burying through use of their blogs and certain tags.
Andy, Yes, I see your point and agree. In SMO integrity is a double edge sword. Excellent post! I, too, am a satisfied stumbler and I pitch this tool as often as I can. I would hate to see their stuff mixed in with S. Perhaps, eBay will simply offer an S. Yeah, I have had stumbleupon for a while now, only time I find a bad website is when I fill in criteria I dont like as much as I think I do. Great post, very descriptive.
I love Stumble too — a friend who I turned onto stumble sent this post to me thru stumble…. That would make it so SU users are notified when a blog links to their SU stuff. Tell ebay to build in pingbacks and trackbacks now if they really want to make up for it. Then they will at least give us a case study in converging blogs and SMO. I use several of these sites daily, and have tried out dozens.
I also jump on any new ones I find, and StumbleUpon is in my top three. Even though I spend all day in front of a screen I can still jump online late at night from home and see whats new here.
There, you will find the week's top 10 submitted URLs, so it's an easy way to get 10 cool clicks without having to submit something for each one. The best successor for StumbleUpon comes from Reddit, with a name that has an unfortunate expletive in it. The community at IAF shares links of all kinds, whether it's a video, an image or GIF, an article, or a whole website.
Sort them by latest or top posts, go for the more controversial ones, or browse in any pattern you want. You won't be disappointed with the collection here, as the moderators do a great job of regulating the quality of posts here.
Unfortunately, there isn't a true randomizer here, but given how regularly IAF gets updated, you won't need it. Not everyone has the time or the inclination to spend hours reading content. Sometimes, you just want some simple relief for your eyes or ears. And that's where Sharkle can help. When you click on Show me something awesome , Sharkle will load a site that is either visually or audibly stimulating.
It might be a simple game that looks cool one game's objective was to keep the ball in the ring, which was immensely satisfying for 30 minutes , an audio loop, or something else entirely. Either way, you can be confident that Sharkle won't leave you needing to read words on a page. Yes, Digg does still exist, and surprisingly, it is better than ever. It's not a true StumbleUpon alternative—you still need to click on articles that pique your interest, rather than having the complete randomness that StumbleUpon offered.
But, it is a fantastic way to find content on topics that you might not have otherwise thought of. Like Reddit, Digg is subdivided into communities. If you make an account, you can subscribe to the ones that interest you the most. Even if you don't make an account, you can explore the impressively diverse homepage and be sure to find something that is worth reading.
StumbleUpon's greatest gift was the joy of time-wasting. You kept clicking away at that button and finding things that are weird, wacky, and downright pointless. While it's not the same, these sites offer similar silly pointlessness. Reddit's search feature is notoriously bad.
Here's how to search Reddit properly to get better, more relevant results. Why spend time rooting around an in an invisible box when others can spoon-feed you funny videos? The promise of the web is complicated, but its most intriguing aspect was always allowing niche communities to gather together and share what they loved.
There was a place for everyone, whether you wanted to talk about obscure British punk bands, conspiracy theories, bacon, folklore, the best fan ships, weird memes, or Star Wars. People were encouraged to experiment, no matter how pointless the outcome appeared to be. You just needed a way to find it. Subscribe to get the best Verge-approved tech deals of the week.
