Stumbling around the web
...and finding the immortal burger
14.03.2007
There are about a dozen buttons on my browser's toolbar, shortcuts designed to take me exactly where I want to go without the hassle of typing in web addresses.
And then there's Stumble! If I want to be surprised, hitting Stumble! will take me to some random and remote corner of the web that I've probably never been to before. If I like the page, I can give it a thumbs up. If I don't, well, thumbs down it is.
The idea behind StumbleUpon is to let you share sites that you like with other people who have similar interests, and vice versa. Set your interest as Food/Cooking and click Stumble! and you might end up with a recipe for The Best Lasagna Ever. Set your interest as Travel and you might end up on this gloriously wonderful and informative site.
The latest addition is the ability to stumble upon random videos, like this remarkable one about the world's first Bionic Burger. Watch and be enlightened.
I'm pretty sure the burger place around the corner from the office in Melbourne also has burgers like this
Or maybe that's just me being really jealous I can't have them for lunch each day!!!
