Have you stumbled upon this site?
Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Last week Arnold at Foreign Perspectives mentioned the social networking site, Stumbleupon to me. I had a look at the site and registered my interest travel sites. I downloaded a Stumble tool bar and when I press the icon at the left hand side of that tool bar a random selection of travel sites appear one at a time. I was mainly interested in travel sites about Europe and I didn’t seem to be able to further refine my search options but maybe that will happen in the future. I discovered some interesting and unusual travel websites. I have also added a stumbleupon social bookmark link option at the bottom of my blog entries.
Have you used Stumbleupon, how do you find it?

StumbleUpon is great when you find yourself bored or need to look at something different. I occasionally use it but try to put it away as I find myself idling away on random websites of interest!

Yes, Kyle, you can spend a lot of time browsing through the random sites. Sometimes I’m not sure that I give each site enough attention, it’s easy to just flick through the sites.

What I am finding now is a message coming up that Stumbleupon can’t find any more travel sites to show me after I’ve stumbled a few. I’m surprised as I thought there would have been hundreds of thousands of travel sites. It asks me if I want to choose any additional subjects. Have you had this problem?

StumbleUpon works by people submitting a website. So, its quite plausible people don’t submit a website that they think is maybe bland or rather boring yet essential (eg, currencies advice).
