Google Chrome – StumbleUpon submit and stumbling buttons

This is for all of you (including me) who want a StumbleUpon toolbar in Google Chrome. I am big fan of StumbleUpon, I spent hours on clicking that small stumble button in firefox. Firefox is awesome but Chrome is faster.

StumbleUpon recently made a virtual toolbar for Chrome, but that’s not enough for a stumbleupon addict like me, because going on thier ite again and again to stumble is time consuming rather than a small stumble button on your browser window. So I just applied some simple tricks (may be you aware with those) and its done. Basically I need two things from StumbleUpon for chrome, which are

• A button in the bookmark bar with which I can stumble and
• another button in the bookmark bar with which I can submit the website (which I am viewing currently) to StumbleUpon.

I have achieved both of these. StumbleUpon provides a url code http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/ when you enter this url in browser, it will search and display a new website. To start stumbling in chrome just add a new page to bookmark bar, by right clicking on bookmark bar and sleect “Add Page” option. Then in the Name type anything (I typed “Stumble”) you like and in the next URL field enter http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/ URL, click OK to save and you’re done. Now click this button again and again and StumbleUpon will suggest new websites.

Now the next is submit current website to StumbleUpon, to achieve this add a new page in the bookmark bar (same as above) Type name (Submit to Stumble) and in th URL field type following javascript code,

javascript:document.location.href=’http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/’

+document.location.href;

(Type the above code in single line, I have divide it to fit in my blog’s content area)

Suppose you’re visiting the http://www.google.com/ then just click Submit to Stumble in button bookmark bar and StumleUpon will open the submit interface for you

This works for me, very well. I am waiting for StumbleUpon toolbar from StumbleUpon developers, but till then not worries, I have the two button which I use mostly. Take your time guyz.
