  Does anyone else here ever use StumbleUpon? I've been using it for a couple of months (when I can get my network adapter to work), and I just love it. I've discovered some really cool stuff and found a neat way to network with others who have common interests.

  Yesterday I found the coolest image of a glass frog using StumbleUpon. Check this out:

  I also discovered a really cool site on giant stars that both adults and kids will likely appreciate. It puts things into perspective:

  I also re-discovered Post Secret. I knew about the books, but didn't think to see if there was a website:

  And a beautiful Stockholm session of Jimi Hendrix, doing "The Wind Cries Mary." It's one of my favorite songs:

  Oh yeah, and blue balls! (It's not what you think):

  oops! I forgot to book mark it.

  So, if you use StumbleUpon, what kinds of things have you discovered?

  Kewel! But did you see the glass frog? Amazing, isn't it? To see the inside of a fairly complex, living, breathing creature while it is alive and unmolested! What a world! What a universe!

  I love StumbleUpon. My stumble toolbar is active maybe once a week when I get bored, but I always find neat stuff.

  . I'm with you. I think StumbleUpon is really great. I usually start playing around with it before going to bed, but I find some nights I just can't stop and I keep going for an hour or more. I never get tired of all the experiments, tutorials, great articles, fantastic graphics and a host of excellent websites that open up with the click of a button. There can be amazing surprises every minute.
