Cool Flash Image Gallery

I just stumbled uppon a great flash image gallery and you can link it to your flickr account… check it out! Change the pictures by putting your flickr id on the end of the url.

This is why I like StumbleUpon so much!

Almost 15.000 visitors in three days

Some time ago I discovered StumbleUpon and I’m submitting most of my posts now. There are a lot of blogpostings that tell you how to make a good StumbleUpon page. Three days ago I submitted, in my opinion, a perfect post to get stumbled. The results are great! (only not for my bandwidth). Almost 15.000 visitors in the last three days. You can see my Clicky stats here. I allowed public access.

Sex still sells! :-)

Welcome StumbleUpon users

A colleague told me about the number of visitors he was getting from StumbleUpon on one of his posts. I never used StumbleUpon before and installed the plugin the same day. It’s a great tool to discover new websites! What do you think of a website that converts pictures to Ascii text? Some unfortunately named people? Or some really nice pictures?

After stumbling upon some nice websites I decided to add some posts to see if I would get some visitors from it. One of my posts is now getting around 40 hits a day from StumbleUpon, and the numbers are still going up. So welcome all StumbleUpon users and keep those thumbs up!
