StumbleUpon brings human touch to search

Hmm 

So, no possibility the reviews section will get spammed, then.

This would be a good idea if... 

Stop

...If it weren't for the fact that most people's brains get about as much exercise as a milk fed veal calf. After spending a life time being spoon fed adverts for thing they don't want or need but buy anyway I don't think they should be able to rate web sites. In fact I don't think they should be on the internet at all. Kick them all off and there will more bandwidth for the rest of us!

Oh, and by the way, someone stole my coat.

Anyone else remember third voice?

Just in case this gets treated like it's a new idea... Third voice 2.0... except the 1.0 was pretty much a 2.0 application

The reviews already get spammed. 

And SU admins don't do anything about it.

Let loose a free for all service that let's individuals rate websites rather than relying on Googles algorythm to supply relevant results eh? Great! No one will think of paying hordes of people in the Far East $0.10 an hour to sit there plugging online pharmacies & pron surely?
