StumbleUpon Lets Bloggers Share Content With New Widget

The Widget Creator lets users create a box featuring content from certain sites (say, all your favorite tech blogs), content that adheres to certain topics (art, music, entertainment, etc), or content that they Stumble.

Just choose what elements you want, and the Creator churns out a line of code that you can then add to your website. The code will generate a box -- you can choose the size -- featuring your content of choice. The box features thumbnail photos and headlines; when clicked, readers are directed to the corresponding websites.

The widget could be a useful tool for web publishers who own several domains and want a way to aggregate all their content across sites, according to a rep from StumbleUpon.

Personally, we can see the widget working as a more polished version of the traditional blogroll, fostering a symbiotic relationship between publishers.

What do you think? Would you include a widget featuring your Stumbles on your site?
