   Best Of StumbleUpon 2010

   2010 was quite a year of highs and lows – from jubilant victories in the World Cup and World Series to harrowing natural disasters across Latin America, the Middle East and Asia. We experienced great innovations (the iPad, automated cars, the world’s first face transplant) as well as human imperfections (the BP oil spill, the European debt crisis, the highest U.S. unemployment rate since the Great Depression).

   And through it all, you stumbled. A lot. In 2010, you stumbled nearly 6 billion times and submitted around 20 million new pages. We compiled 50 of the most popular sites submitted to StumbleUpon this year to create a “Best of SU 2010” list that reflects some of the most interesting (and in some cases, unusual) issues, trends, ideas, photos and videos of the year, from Beluga whales blowing bubbles in Japan to a father who creatively captures his kids on film. To check it out, go to the Best of SU 2010 page and click the yellow “Stumble” button in the upper lefthand corner.
