With StumbleUpon recently acquired for somewhere between $60 and $75 million it has brought other similar sites into the spotlight as the search is on for the next Stumble. StumbleUpon leverages a stupid plain simple approach to enable its users to discover new places and videos on the web. If you are not one to “stumble,” you might want to give “walking the web” a try with Walk2Web. Walk2Web, created by San Jose-based Siteheart, uncovers new places on the web in a similar simple fashion to that of StumbleUpon but has its own gimmicky twist. Instead of stumbling, a user is presented a slide-show of random web site screen-shot thumbnails. Upon clicking on one of the site screen-shots a user is shown a visual representation of the related sites and a user can “walk” to other related sites. In addition a user can type in a direct URL to “walk” the web. Using Somewhat Frank as an example, I have captured a screen-shot (below) that shows how associated sites are presented.
