World outage : Stumbleupon down after glitch

Stumbleupon offline

One of the web’s most popular social share websites: Stumbleupon, has experienced a complete blackout. So far there has been no word as the nature of the technical issue the site faces.

Stumbleupon is one of the most visited websites in the world with over 20 million users, and often creating viral trends in the web space. One of our very own articles has gone viral through the Stumbleupon platform, which gives users the ability to find interesting new content.

Unlike Facebook and Twitter, Stumbleupon puts a community emphasis on good quality content, and allows people to ‘stumble’ their favourite web pages at random, and choose specific categories. It is estimated that over 1 billion pages are stumbled each month.
