StumbleUpon vs. Pandora
Sharing Emphasized Facebook Twitter Email
Money Maker: Advertising
“Stumbling” for Music vs.
“Stumbling” for Video + Text

Stumbling vs. Googling
Both find things on the web.
Discovery over utilitarian searching
Google’s huge!
Both use advertising but ads are shown differently

Stumbling vs. Digging
Both are built through user submissions
Both deliver a sense of “discovery” to visitors
Digg lacks personalization and does not recommend stories
Digg does not cluster its users and make recommendations based on social network
StumbleUpon doesn’t cover breaking news very well Digg is better at covering tech,
world or other news. Digg has all stories at once vs.
in StumbleUpon showing one story at a time

Deli.cio.us
StumbleUpon vs. Deli.cio.us They are both ways to save and record
wonderful bits of information you experience as you cruise the web and they both have browser-side gizmos for users.
The interfaces are radically different, though I suspect you’ll get more link and SEM value from Deli.cio.us in the short term.

Myspace Here’s StumbleUpon vs. MySpace: Both have profile pages that show personal interests
and photos of users StumbleUpon is built around an information and
entertainment discovery recommendation experience where profiles lead back to discovery, while MySpace is built around the profile viewing and community communication experience.
It would be wicked if SU and MySpace could converge. Innit.
