By now you have heard that stumble upon has silently taken over twitter in the amount of users by more than you think. This has lead the developers to develop an iPhone app, having a positive effect in the amount of users increasing. This smart move was thought out well. Website owners and bloggers will benefit in a huge way from this app, as it brings in huge traffic daily for their sites. The iPhone app stumbleupon does not differ from the Pc version to much, it has similar options but does miss a few of them. However your free iPhone app stumbleupon is the best social network app currently. Features include,browse flicker ,news ,YouTube and photos. Along with all your favorites that you had saved on your desktop/Pc version of stumbleupon. Above all the major button on the top is of-course the stumble button. Using this button will stumble through webpages you like based on you favorites and what you like. In a sense this is a better way to browse the Internet, at times I use stumbleupon more than google , this will increase as more users follow this welcoming trend.
Other features of stumbleupon is your standard social networking sharing capabilities like twitter and facebook ect. What I like is that you can see other peoples page views and then comment on them and leave a review so others know what you think. The main feature is that you press the green thumps up or red thumps down if you don't like the site. This votes the page for other users and shows what's more relevant based on our searches.
So what's the mask behind stumbleupon and why was this network developed? Stumbleupon is a mere blog directory that other people and bloggers can submit the webpage or blog then like it and review it. Other people will also like it and review it making a ripple effect of traffic coming from everywhere. No need to be at the top of google when you could at the top of stumbleupon directory daily. Besides generating traffic for bloggers stumbleupon is based on a way to share sites and search them, I see a search engine that's highly refined coming from stumbleupon in a few tears time. It's a new age search engine that's more powerful than google because it's rated by humans and
Not by some SEO that google bots crawl then rate. I feel stumbleupon gives me richer feedback that's more relevant.
Final impressions: iPhone app stumbleupon is a must have app, if you don't have it then you are missing out on huge opportunity of finding a new way to search the web. The userinterface is amazing and works fast due to perfect coding. It's very user-friendly and kicks googles butt.
