Some insight into how StumbleUpon works. Not too surprising.
Quoted: As you can see in the chart below, there are three key parts to the Recommendation Engine. There are pages from the topics you marked that interest you, socially endorsed pages and peer endorsed pages. Socially endorsed pages are the ones that users you have befriended on the site like, while peer endorsed pages are ones from users who have similar voting habits (giving a site the thumbs up or thumbs down) as you.
