StumbleUpon app review

The Internet is rather big, isn’t it? As if that wasn’t enough, you now have thousands of mobile apps to trawl through. StumbleUpon helps alleviate such information overload and makes good old fashioned web surfing fun and relevant again.

Having signed up and fed in your favourite topics (from a pretty comprehensive list), you can then hit the Stumble icon to come up with a random web page, news item, Flickr photo, YouTube video or even app based on your interests. This free-wheeling concept is even better suited to mobile than desktop, and the execution is suitably slick. Great stuff.
