Stumbleupon is a really fun website that can help you discover many different interesting websites that relate to your specific interest. The website is very simple to use, all you do is click on your interest and hit stumble. The website then automatically tailors the websites that you get to your own interest. It is really useful when finding different videos and even recipes. When you create your stumbleupon the website asks you to share your interest and then it tailors what websites that are given to your interest. Some pro's to this website are the search bar and the favorite tag. The search bar is helpful for quick searches and the favorite tag allows you to search through your previously viewed webpages. A con is that this website occasionally recycles websites and videos that you have previously watched and that can be a bit repetitive. Overall I would recommend this site to others who are interested in finding some really cool websites and videos. But I would warn them that it can be addicting.

Historypin is a very interesting pinning website that allows people to share their photos and tag them to a specific location on a map, for example in New York City. The websites goal is to map out the entire worlds history through photos. This is really cool because each picture has a story and it is really fascinating to see and hear stories about different locations that may be special to you. It is a way to connect with the past and the present. History pin has some really helpful features such as a search bar that allows you to search times and dates. However some parts of the website can be a bit confusing to someone who is just beginning, you also have to have a google account to create a historypin account which is a little annoying. In the end I think that this is a very fun website that allows everyone to take part in mapping out the worlds history.

Pinterest is a really fun pin board website that allows you to pin different websites and pictures and arrange them into boards. This technique is really useful because it keeps your ideas and interest organized and in one place. On Pinterest you can create your own boards, as well as see others boards, which can be very useful when searching for pins that interest you. Pinterest has many different categories such as food, art, home decor, and DIY projects. I love getting on Pinterest to find DIY present ideas. The website is easy to use and has some very useful features. One feature that I specifically like is that each pin has a link to the original website which can be very helpful with the DIY projects or food recipes. One con about the website is that in order to create a Pinterest you have to receive an invitation. This can be a little annoying because it takes a couple of days to process, but it is worth the wait. I would recommend Pinterest to anyone, I have even got my mother hooked.
