Sometime today, StumbleUpon will register its five millionth user. (At the time of this writing, it is at 4,994,826 registered users). That number is kind of meaningless because it counts anyone who has ever registered for the Website-rating and discovery service, and who may no longer use it. StumbleUpon, which is part of eBay, does not disclose how many active users it has. But it did provide me with the nifty little graph above which shows how many times users actually "stumble" something on the Web. (When you like a site or a video you can stumble it by giving it a thumbs up--the more stumbles a page gets, the higher it ranks when others are looking for similar pages). The service is about to collect its five billionth stumble within the next 30 days. Users have already stumbled more than one billion times so far this year. Stumbling activity was up 160 percent during the first quarter of 2008, compared to the same period in 2007 (with 974 million stumbles versus 375 million).

Five Million Users And Nearly Five Billion Stumbles Later I know SU was cooler when it was *grassroots* *shrugs* but I still like it around here just fine :)

Most people think of StumbleUpon as a socially-powered discovery engine rather than a search engine, but personal discovery and search may be colliding.
