StumbleUpon 3.0 Released
I just updated to StumbleUpon 3.0 (From 2.91) and it looks like it’s a major improvement. Some minor interface changes, like changing the icons and getting rid of that useless search bar I never used. It looks much simpler and easier to use now, and it seems much faster. The new submission dialogue is much faster to pop up and the rating goes by quicker to.
Straight from their changelog, these are the new features.
- Avatars on the ‘Send to’ menu and on shared notes.
- Drag-and-drop toolbar placement. (#233)
- Configurable channel buttons.
- Channel indicator on the stumble button.
- New icon set.
- Toggle button configuration via the options dialog.
- Several search / tag configurations to cater to power users.
- Compatibility with the IE Tab extension. (#401)
- Fix for a bug where buttons are spaced too far apart on OSX.
- Probable workaround for the issue where the toolbar cannot connect at the beginning of a browser session, causing a spurious ’server is down’ message. (#444)
- Fix for a bug where rating a page thumb-down when the page is new to StumbleUpon was displaying a generic error message. New behavior is to display an explanatory dialog. (#274) (forum link)
- Final phase of migration to hashed passwords for users who upgraded from versions older than 2.85.
Time for some stumbling?
