Stumble again

I was reminded that not everyone uses StumbleUpon yet. Now I have to blog and tell everyone to use StumbleUpon! The thing I love about it, that the tool bar is always there, and you don’t need to go on a website to see popularity lists that often are not even any interest to me, as I’m not always looking for the buzz topics. After SU has collected enough information to pretty much get the idea what you like and don’t like, you rarely hit a page you don’t like. As you notice, I’m talking in the readers point of view. I am the worst reader out there! I just want to write, bugger the reading, but when you get content in front of you so easily, you have to love it.

In the stumbling world, the word goes, that it takes over your life almost. “One more stumble” can keep you up late at nights and drag you out of bed early to do a couple more before going to work. Okay, addiction should not be used as a recommendation, but it just tells you how cool it is. And people who don’t have addictive nature, will handle it fine, don’t worry.

StumbleUpon brought back my belief in the Internet some months ago when I started using it. I was quite bored and thought that nothing happened around the Internet anymore. I installed Stumbe, and realised there was a lot of cool things going on!

For bloggers and site owners I would like to say though, that take Stumble as it is. Don’t tell people not to give you thumbs down for your post, because that’ll be a sure fire way to make them do so. Also don’t tell them to stuble you, as they most certainly won’t if you tell them to. Just add the “stumble this” button and leave it at that – not that you need to, any site can be added to Stumble, but it makes it a tad more easier at times, and also remind your readers who stumble to stumble… Not that they would need to be reminded most of the time…

Just one more thing. Do you know what is the first thing I do when I get homy on a new computer? (I have had to change computers a lot lately, long story.) I install the SU toolbar. I feel naked without it. Get yours!
