The Best of StumbleUpon

So, those who have no idea what stumbleupon is I'll give a little explanation. StumbleUpon is a site/firefox addon that generates random URLs that others have discovered and added to the StumbleUpon database under certain tags. So if you click the Stumble button on the addon bar you'll get any site under the tags you select when you sign up (you have to sign up to start stumbling, you can change tags later by using the site or the addon bar). Now to explain the basics of the toolbar.

Red- This is the Stumble button. It will change your page to a new and random page.

 

Green- This is the Thumbs up button. If you like the page, click this and it will do 2 things: Add that page to a Bookmark folder marked as Stumble Upon>*category*>"thumbs upped sites". LAst, it adds it to your favorites on your userpage on the stumbleupon site.

 

Blue- The thumbs down button marks that site as disliked. That way you won't stumble upon it again

 

 

 

There are other things about the toolbar you'll have to discover yourself so play around with it. Now here is the site for the addon download:

 

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... on&cat=all

 

 

 

 

 

Now that you have that down, or had it down prior, what are some of your favorites that you've Stumbled Upon?

Doesn't play runescapes anymore

Cool I'll check it out. Btw there is another section on here called "advertise your thing here" you may find that helpful too. The only thing I don't like about it is perhaps in the future I may change my mind or need that specific search and I'll never stumble across it again. Although you could choose to just never use the button.

The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.

Alright thanks for the tip :), I'm still a wee chicken feather

So is this your creation? Something you're recommending? Helping a friend advertise?

 

 

 

Depending on your reason, I can help you out quite a bit.

Wasn't there a topic about this awhile back? Like last year to 2 years ago?

If I remember corectly, a friend of mine, Skull2109 created a thread "Jewels of the Internet" before the rollback.

 

 

 

That got lost, but stumble upon was mentioned in on of the replies.

Hehehe. I remember saying something like that.

Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you. You want everything that's--falls off garbage can

Camera guy: Whoa, haha, are you okay dude?

Matt: You want anything funny that happens, don't you?

Camera guy: still laughing

Matt: You want the funny shit that happens here and there, you think it comes out of your [bleep]ing [wagon] pushes garbage can down, don't you? You think it's funny? It comes out of here! running towards Camera guy

Camera guy: runs away still laughing

Matt: You think the funny comes out of your mother[bleep]ing creativity? Comes out of Satan, mother[bleep]er! nn--ngh! pushes Camera guy down

Camera guy: Hoooholy [bleep]!

Matt: FUNNY ISN'T REAL! FUNNY ISN'T REAL!

Goddess, StumbleUpon is not made by him (at least i think) it's one of those pieces of software that everyone knows about.

Well I don't know about it so clearly not everyone does. And besides, who cares who made it, I'm trying to help the guy out.

I don't normally thumb up what I like on there, so I have forgotten all my faves. Great idea though, use it all the time.

I told you it was not, so there is no real reason to put it on the "advertise your thing here" thread.

 

 

 

The "that everyone knows" bit was an exaggeration, calm down. ::'

 

 

 

I'm not completely sure, but you make a new account when you download the addon on FF. It tracks your stuff and you can see it later or bookmark it or save it to your account so you can see it later.

I love stumbleupon, great fun when bored. :thumbsup:

Hello friend, Senajitkaushik was epic, Good luck bro.

I told you it was not, so there is no real reason to put it on the "advertise your thing here" thread.

 

 

 

I wrote that before you posted derrrrr :wall:

 

 

 

Anyway, I still much prefer google.

Google is a "search engine", where you find what you are looking for.

 

StumbleUpon is a "discovery engine" where you find what you might like, but aren't looking for.

 

 

 

They're wholly different; I use both.

For some reason, this is about the 3rd or so anti-religion site I've stumbled upon. I don't recall checking anything about religion in the preferences, but maybe.

I stumbled upon that page to. And like 10 other anti religion sites.

 

Some of them are pretty funny.

This site is hours and hours of fun. Thanks for showing me. This is my favorite so far: http://home.bitworks.co.nz/trivia/human.htm

 

 

 

I love what the bottom says. George Washington grew marijuana, yet the government makes it illegal.

Good for the self esteem and makes me laugh.

This one made me laugh:

 

"The Dutch in general prefer their french fries with mayonnaise."

 

As I'm Dutch myself, this is so normal for me I can hardly believe it turns up on some kind of "lol at these weird laws/customs/etc."-site.
