July 7th:
Other people have Twitter, or Pinterest, or Tumblr, but I have StumbleUpon. StumbleUpon is "a discovery engine (a form of web search engine) that finds and recommends web content to its users. Its features allow users to discover and rate Web pages, photos, and videos that are personalized to their tastes and interests" (Wikipedia). Pretty much, you choose topics that interest you out of a huge list, and then "stumble" your interests, meaning that you hit the "stumble" button and it brings up a page that adheres to one or more of your interests. A couple of my "interests" are Literature, Crafts, and Interior Design. This means that I get sites with DIYs, awesome decoration/home design stuff, and fun quotes and book recommendations. I spend hours on StumbleUpon without knowing it!
Recently I've been really into crafts and DIYs and StumbleUpon has been a true inspiration, giving me new ideas at every click! I made some earrings today on a whim because of a picture I saw on StumbleUpon. StumbleUpon inspired my bedroom painting as if brought me to a color pallet website. If I ever have a half hour or free time and I happen to be sitting at my computer: StumbleUpon, here I come!
I recommend that you try it out - free to join and plenty of fun! Keep it classy, mes amis!
