Eep: I have “liked” 21K tweets (poor life choices). So much signal, yet my feed’s so noisy! Is 21K “not enough” to train a good recommender?

Oh it is enough, Prismatic was pretty good, and it seeded itself from my Twitter feed.

I've used recommender system since the SubMe 'intelligent search engine' in the late 90s. But they always go away.

Remember Ness? It was really valuable; it went away years ago; now there’s no replacement! VC funding model sadness etc etc

No. Flipboard is (was?) also slightly reasonable. But I haven't used it since Prismatic came about. And haven't used it since

Google News / the Google app, also does it bit. But tends to serve only very mainstream 'pop' news.

"Global Network of Dreams" is also sort of nice: gnod.com - it's a bit like goodfil.ms but for music and books

Gnod is also really old. Think 2002 or so.
