I give you: StumbleUpon
Tagline: Personalized recommendations to help you discover the best of the web.
"But, Donna, what does that MEAN?"
This brilliant little gem of a website asks you what areas of life you're interested in (as specific as "Board Games" and as fuzzy as "Chaos/Complexity"), and then you "Stumble" from web page to web page of AMAZINGNESS.
My friends now hate me because I constantly spam their inbox with links that I got from StumbleUpon. But they love me, because did I mention they're links of AMAZINGNESS?
And I'm not the only one who thinks so! This blogger compiled a whole set of StumbleUpon addiction-related images, like this one:

Side Effects: You may find yourself with a condition known as CTS (Compulsion to Stumble), so make sure you start when you have at least a free hour to roam the Internets. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Some of my favorite Stumbled links:
For funny - http://theoatmeal.com/comics/cook_home
For art - www.womansday.com/Articles/Family-Lifestyle/12-Cool-Colored-Pencil-Sculptures.html
For travel - http://opentravel.com/blogs/fairytale-destinations/
Have you tried StumbleUpon? Is anyone NOT a fan or has been wholly disappointed by their Stumbling results? Any recovering Stumblers out there?
I love, love, love Stumble Upon. I have found some of the best writing resources using it!
