This is Stumble Upon! I love this tool. Basically, it is a toolbar that you download to your internet browser. They have you fill out a brief questionare about your interests before you start and then voila you are ready to stumble! The program places a toolbar with a "Stumble" button in your browser. When you hit the stumble button it will bring up a random website it thinks you might like. This is GREAT if you have hours to kill hanging around on the internet (as I frequently do waiting for my husband to get home from work). It'll bring up anything from games, news websites, cool pictures, health and fitness articles -- it just depends on what you like! Once the page comes up you can give it a thumbs up (meaning you like it and would like to save it to your favorites) or a thumbs down (which will guide stumble away from similar pages in the future). For those of you who like to procrastinate or love coming upon those unique web pages, Stumble is for you!

As far as my reward for all this hard work :) -- I want a flash drive for the Sync in my new car!! :) :)

Thanks for the StumbleUpon recommendation. I've never heard of it, but I'm now addicted!

What is this about a flash drive and your car? Now it's my turn to learn something...
