Seriously! Try it out! "Collaborative opinions".

1. Peer-reviewed by users
You can narrow down the web according to your interests, and then use the experiences of others to find (and recommend, or add to the list) sites that others have found to be of value. A very good tool, and I've found that a lot of my favorite truth-telling sites show up along with a lot more which I'd never have found on my own.

2. It comes as a Firefox extension
If you do not use Firefox, you are missing out on a real treat.

Once you download the core of the program there are extensions that add usefulness to a browser. The Dictionary feature is wonderful as you just left click on a word to highlight it and select definition out of a right-click menu.

Stumbleupon comes as an extension that can be downloaded from https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=138&application=firefox It received 4.8 out of 5 stars on the extension page.

I just added it as an extension. Thanks for the thought.
