Similicio.us

similiciousSimilicio.us is an application that finds websites that appeal to similar tastes, using delicio.us bookmarks.

This is an experiment to see whether I can quickly find relevant web sites based on people’s tags/bookmarks on del.icio.us, using a home-brewed association engine. It answers the question “people who tagged this site also tagged what other sites”. I am using it mostly to find blogs that are similar to the ones I read, and to find new popular web sites that are in my area.

For example, if you like Neatorama, here is a list of other sites you might like. You can enter any URL and find a list of associated sites. You can also add this application to your browser toolbar. Link -via Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories

    I was humbled to enter my own site and see Damn Interesting as the first result. I'm not worthy!

    mentalfloss.com is missing from Neatorama's similicio.us result. Inexplicable, I say!
