Discover the new web everyday with these toolbars!

I’m sure that there would have been times, when you would have wondered that what next should be done on the internet. You’ve downloaded movies, read the news, downloaded music, checked your email and what not, but still you want to do something, because you just don’t have anything else to do and you to pass your time, you want to use the internet connection. Am I wrong ? Haven’t you experienced anything like that ?

Well, atleast I’ve gone through this situation a lot and then I discovered the web! Well, with this statement, I mean that I started to use various toolbars which can suggest me various new websites and help me find new and interesting content of my taste. Let’s look at various toolbars :

1. StumbleUpon : Ok, all this was started by this company. StumbleUpon, which was recently in news as some PROs thought that Ebay will acquire Stumbleupon. Stumbleupon created a toolbar, which lets users select the topic of their taste and then displays various webpages, websites and all this is done with user input. You can suggest various sites, which you like and then vote in their favour or against those pages. This way, you’ll be able to get new pages and will be able to connect with people, who share same interest as you have.

The idea seemed to work and now most of the people love to use this service as not only, it shows various webpages, but now they are displaying interesting videos & photos too. I’ve really enjoyed many videos and found great articles and websites using this service.

As a blogger as well, you feel great if you get Stumbled upon, because it generates good traffic and mostly you’ll find that the traffic generated with Stumbleupon will give you regular readers and will increase your feed subscriber count.

2. Yoono : This French startup has got a good user base of 600,000 even though, it was not officially released yet. It was released in this Web 2.0 Expo. This works somewhat like Stumbleupon, however it gives you the suggestions on your searches too. So, you can get the recommended content and that related to your search term.Yoono has launched other features like Buzz It.

3. Google Toolbar : Well, this was a surprise by Google, when they launched this button for their toolbar, which suggests users various websites related to the search terms and according to the web history of your profile. Well, although it is not a toolbar as such, but it does qualify in this post, because this post is about discovering content and this button actually does the same.

Well, all in all all these three toolbars can help you find interesting content for you to read, view and share with others. This will not only, help you come out of boredom but it will also help you increasing the knowledge (provided that’s your interest).

Sponsors : Running a site has never been cheaper. From setting up a site to marketing it, the prices have hit rock bottom. The revolution is brought by big companies like godaddy, a web hosting gaint, who not only provide cheap web hosting services but you can also buy domains from them. Then to operate the site you obviously need a fast broadband connections, these can generally be found for free for a limited time. Marketing due to so much competition, has too become very cheap. You can find everything at all price ranges, from a bit more affective marketing such as ppc marketing to a more wide spread marketing like affiliate marketing to something more direct like email advertising.
