There's a complex story to how I know about this, but it doesn't matter.
The following link is like falling into the rabbit hole.
StumbleUpon.com is a totally new kind of tool. The idea is very simple but the results are
captivating (like ingredients such as basil, parmesan cheese, and olive oil which produce
divine pesto.)
With StumbleUpon, you click on a button on your browser, and it takes you to a page that
you're interested in. If you like the page, you vote for it (a click at the top of the
browser). Then click and see the next page.
That's it.
The result of tens of thousands of votes quickly produces a collection of the most
fascinating webpages on various topics. Pick something you're really interested in, and
suddenly find dozens of really great web pages about it.
It works only in Firefox. Open your Firefox browser (or fetch Firefox for free at
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ ), and then click www.StumbleUpon.com
