StumbleUpon
Social Media Platform
StumbleUpon is an Internet community that allows its users to discover and rate Web pages, photos, and videos. It is a personalized recommendation engine which uses peer and social-networking principles.
Using search engines to locate relevant content typically means hunting through pages of results. Rather than searching for quality Web sites, StumbleUpon members are taken directly to Web sites matching their personal interests and preferences.
StumbleUpon uses ratings to form collaborative opinions on Web site quality. When you stumble, you will only see pages that friends and like-minded stumblers have recommended. This helps you discover great content you probably wouldn't find using the traditional search engines.
