I have fallen in love with three websites, StumbleUpon, Pinterest and Tumblr. StumbleUpon generates websites based on your interests and I have found some great craft blogs and homeschooling resources that I would have probably never knew existed. I like to just sit down with a cup of coffee and "stumble" 10 or 12 times for a little break. I usually find at least 3 gems that are worth bookmarking, putting on my "pinboard," or sharing on Tumblr. My pinboards are essentially digital inspiration boards kept on Pinterest. They are better than bookmarks because they are pictures so it is easy to see a project or tutorial I was interested in. Finally, Tumblr is my love letter to the internet. It is a blog where I can share online stuff I think is cool. I can keep it separate from my personal blogs and it is so easy. I have a button on my bookmarks bar and I just click to share. Tumblr grabs the website address and I choose a picture or video from the page and add some text. Takes seconds.
I've put the links to right on this blog if you are interested in seeing what I have been doing online. The BestBarista link is my Tumblr page. (If you run across a bestbarista on the internet, there is a pretty good chance it's me. It's been my username since I was in fact the world's best barista ☺)
