I’ve been messing around with StumbleUpon. If you’re curious about what I’ve found you can find me there as IncidentalEcon. If you don’t even know what StumbleUpon is, read this Wikipedia entry. I confess, however, it didn’t help me much. I didn’t get it until I tried it. In brief, it is a way to find and share interesting things on the web. I’ll be using it as a way to note/share interesting and fun stuff on the web that is not important enough to include in this blog’s News & Links feed.
