Stumble Upon is a great website / toolbar that is used to bring you to websites you’ve never heard of yet fall into your range of things that you’re interested in. When you sign up to Stumble Upon, (for free) you select the categories of the pages you’re willing to see. They install a toolbar in your browser and when you hit the STUMBLE! button it will bring you to a random page that is part of the categories you suggested. You can rate sites by clicking on the thumbs up or thumbs down symbols on the toolbar, and stumble upon will slowly learn what you REALLY like and what you don’t.
Stumble Upon has been great for bringing traffic to TechieNATION, and I’m very grateful for it. However, my bookmarks are paying the price. I used to have 10-12 sites in my bookmarks. After only a couple of months of using Stumble Upon I now have over a hundred sites that I didn’t want to forget about. There are so many pages I want to go back and re-read, and maybe blog about, but I can’t stop hitting that magical stumble button and getting more !
DAMN YOU STUMBLE UPON !!!!

Jason I am gutted for you that you’re getting so much traffic from Stumble Upon. It must be a real hardship for you. If it’s so much of a problem, then put a redirect in to send the traffic to my site and I will take the problem off your hands…
Hahaha … That’s ok I think I’ll keep my traffic.
The people COMING here from stumbleupon i’m very happy about, it’s more the fact that I can’t sit it from of my pc for over 5 minutes and not hit that “stumble” button the problem.
