Heres a copy of the blog from Stumbleupon. One of my favorite services/websites, apps.

We’re always looking for new opportunities to bring the surprise-filled Stumbling experience you love to more devices and platforms. Starting today, we are pleased to bring you a great Stumbling experience on Windows 8 Release Preview, available now in the Windows Store.
StumbleUpon’s new Metro-style app for Windows 8 Release Preview has been designed to be fast and fluid, touch-optimized, and most of all clean and simple–just like Windows 8.
The streamlined, full-screen experience of the Windows Metro-style UI is a terrific way to showcase the immersive experience of Stumbling. The intuitive user controls and virtually boundless Web make it easy to discover new and interesting things. Enjoy hours exploring the parts of the Web most relevant to you simply by selecting the “Stumble!” button on the app bar or by choosing from recommended Stumbles on the home page or when snapped. Great stuff is just a tap or click away.
