Have you heard about Stumble Upon? If not, I’ll warn you upfront that it’s addictive.
What is Stumble Upon?
Stumble Upon is a social media web site that allows its users to easily share and recommend web sites. “Stumblers” tag specific personal or professional interests and then “channel surf” the web via user-generated tags.
Users view what others have found interesting instead of what search engine spiders have deemed worthy. You, the user, educate the system about your likes and dislikes by tagging individual web pages with a “thumbs up” or a “thumbs down.”
Trust me on this … it’s an easy way to lose an entire evening! You’ll find fascinating sites that you never knew existed, view spectacular photography, and find excellent resources for business, web development, teaching, writing, design, and the list goes on and on.
And what does this have to do with marketing? I’m so glad you asked!
