I am just wondering how many people use StumbleUpon. I have had it for a while, and I recently started using again. I get quite amusing pages too.

For those who do not know what I am talking about, it is a toolbar for your browser where you enter your preferences then press a button and are given a random site. It is quite fun to do too.

So how many of you EoFFers out there Stumble?

I'd never even heard of this stumble program until I read this.

However, I do tend to fall over quite a bit! :(

Did anyone else think that the thread title said "*strips*" at first?

What kind of sites do you get? It sounds kinda like a search engine to me.

It is completely based on your interest. See users will add sites they like, and they will be categorized. So I have a variety of interest, like world religions, video games, photoshop, humour, etc. I have gotten pages that were mock G.W. Bush's hotmail inbox to sits on Buddhism to sites that have Photoshop filters.

*clicks Stumble!* I got [url=http://www.trevorvanmeter.com/flyguy/flyGuy.swf]This[/color] Before that I got a page on Shakespeare.

Actually he is not being rude. Yet if I was stripping I think I would have gotten banned...

That is about it. All you do is dwnload it, then when you first use it you make an account at the site indicating all your interests. Then when you are bored all you do is click Stumble! and voilą! A page related to one of your interests will be loaded. You also have a menu bar where you can say site is good or not and add tags to it so that other stumblers will find it. I have found a few sites of interest that have given me a laugh, then I found so good PS brushes, and some cool flash sites too. Random is fun!
