Stumble exchanging is actually against the SU rules, which is why we only encourage it here if you truly enjoy the content of the page/article. And I agree with that, as I want people to actually like my site, not pretend to.

SU has a great community, I have met a bunch of interesting people. I think of it like a myspace but without all the ads and cluttering, and you can filter your friends to your own interests. I think the community is my favorite part.

If your site gets a lot of stumbles and reviews, it can end up in the spotlight sites on SU which potentially leads to a few hundred extra visitors a day for a couple of days.

Other than that, it is what it is.

I would like to know this too. I have to check each page manually.

But perhaps obsessive stumble checking is just as bad as checking your weight? *shrug*
