New page and Review of recommender system

Seems like the recommender system space may heat up a little more this year so I copied my recommender systems review to its’ own page . I have also added the following review of Minematch.

Matchmine is a CA based company that uses demographic data to help with the “Cold Start” problem that many recommender systems face. They have built a flash application to help recommend movies (soon other categories). They would also like to partner with other recommender systems to collect data. I can only assume that what they are looking to do it collect market data that they can sell. I think that selling this data has great potential. “Data is king” and isn’t that what the new internet economy is all about selling data? It will be interesting to see if any other recommender systems partner with matchmine.
