Stumbleupon is neat

A coworker recently told me he finds some really cool stuff using Stumbleupon. Now, I had heard of Stumbleupon before, but I had never tried it. I'm not sure why. The concept is cool.

I gave it a spin today, and here's my experience so far. Account sign up? Fairly easy, though it did kind of nag me to use a facebook account and import some friends or something. Once that was setup, it was fairly straightforward.

So far I've found a couple of really cool links, after telling it I liked ~35 things, and disliked 5, and skipping a few.

• 28 Rich Data Visualization Tools - some really cool graph and chart tools
• UX Movement - a great site about user experience. I'm already learning some useful things, like better ways of presenting form data and search buttons.

So, Stumbleupon is pretty neat. That's it for now.
