The Quantum Mechanics of StumbleUpon

Light is particle, light is wave—it all depends on how and when you look at it. So, too, is SU

  • Steve sends link to PandoraJam
  • Michael gives it a “thumbs up” and is sent to the SU “discovery” page to give it a review
  • Michael starts chatting with Steve (”discovery” window still open, review unsent)
  • Steve & Michael go blah, blah, blah
  • Michael finally finishes review and sends, only to find that the site had already been discovered by Steve (who had submitted a review while Michael’s discovery window was open but unsent)!
  • BUT WAIT, Steve’s view shows Michael as the Discovery Boy???

    This was a bizarre moment, and I think you’ve done a nice job of capturing it – my favorite:

    >> Steve & Michael go blah, blah, blah

    I sure didn’t mean to get the jump on your discovery, but I’m glad it resulted in such an interesting occurrence (and this post as well).

    Très bizarre, en effet. Memang aneh sekali. Very bizarre, indeed. As HST used to say, “When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.”
