Friday Fun Link – CloudHiker

In the early days of the Internet, there was a tool called StumbleUpon where you could click a button and get taken to a random web site then click again and again. It was a great way to experience the full Internet in all its weird and wonderful glory. Now that “the Internet” has become […]
