Ha - good one, James! Definitely Stumble-worthy.

I loved the forklift shot. That scene would have given an OSHA representative a heart attack!

Jason,
Are You Anchored or Adrift is absolutely wonderful. I stumbled it.

I also really like The Subconscious Mind in Control (AKA Habits) and also stumbled that one.

Great writing!

Love the site aaronmp2003. A little too crowded for my taste but that doesn't matter. I like sites with forums on the front page.

Default Too much

Do I spam this forum with posting my articles, or do I just write a lot and none of you really mind? I know I seem to post many more articles than most... I'm not looking for stumbles on all of them, just passing them along so that you can read them and decide if you enjoy them (and hopefully tempt you into subscribing... I'm over 50 subscribers, but my current goal is 100!).

Main Page - Libregamewiki

It is a site about only Free games. I hope some of you guys are interested in video games and Free software. If not, than this post do not have much ROI.

There are something improtant hidden in plain sight that you guys may not be able to notice.

My site, Main Page - Libregamewiki may look like a site that have nothing to do with politics, but it is hardly being non-political. But with this wiki, I am trying to protest the current way we use the copyright system. I am also trying to promote softwares that gives you freedom or tries to protect it. It is very subtle until your action trigger an administrative or editorial control in the form of article deletions.

I got a blog on blogspot.com that is entirely public domain for an experiment. But it isn't ready yet as it have no content worth reading. It is a philosophy blog. I am sure that a lot of you are more interested in that.

It is not a problem for me. I enjoy coming to this thread and seeing what others are doing and stumbling the articles I like.

Could you please give me some feedback on these posts? If you like them I would appreciate a stumble.

How to Hold on to Success

Why isn't Enough Ever Enough?

Challenging Our Mental Maps

This last one was actually written by Mark Lapierre and is a great article. I'd stumble it but he graciously allowed it to be put on our site and I don't want the stumble to backfire as it really is good!

The Importance of Awareness and Acceptance

Thanks!

Also, I'm doing a grain-free diet this month and I wrote a post about that:

Two Questions:

1) Why do random people add you as a fan? Not that I mind, but I don't see why they do anyway, whne it appears as though you have nothing in common, no similar interests, no website stumbles, etc.

2) Just wanted to know if there is any sort of stat tracker for stumbleupon yet? I'd like to have records to see how many pages from my website are stumbled, who likes what, etc. without having to view each page individually.

Maybe they like your website whether you have anything else in common or not.

I think your concept of Top 10' is original and fun! I'm a fan!

#1... they like the pages that you have given a thumbs up. It has nothing to do with your actual website (ie blog), at least usually, it's about the pages that you have given a thumbs up.

#2... I haven't found one, and would love to have one. Anything I've seen that shows "ratings" from StumbleUpon, however, shows the number of reviews, not the number of thumbs up... which is really by far the more interesting number to me.
