How is that delicious-like tagging system different than trying to figure out what people will like based on what other people with similar tastes like? It seems that a recommendation system with sufficient input would easily be able to identify the 25% of people whom would find an article worth reading.
- zackattack 16y agoHere's the thing, I don't care about what the vast majority of people think is interesting, insightful, funny, or informative, because I've already obtained those insights. I want to hear what people whom I respect think is cool, and that is actually the principal value of Twitter for me. Tweets from my favorite friends, and people whose mind I respect, go straight to my phone. I want to be alerted with that information ASAP.
