Finding people that rate in the same way as you is an interesting concept at https://www.mov3y.com


If only it worked. After rating 50 movies, the "recommended" section still is empty. Also, lots of GUI issues, dead links etc.


Oh yea, that's not how it was when I was using it for a few weeks. Seems they must have a recent issue.


Ah no, seems to work now :)


Recommendations are shown now for me, too. Not really movies that I liked, but at least it's working. The "Something wrong?" link at the bottom right is still a 404 though. :(


Have you explored the similarity between users? Recommendations are based on similar people. I usually use the user comparison view to check if I can trust the other user.

The user comparison view also shows you what the other user has seen and you haven't. Great once you trust the user to discover new movies.


Try http://www.criticker.com Same concept, I'd say it has a simpler and clearer interface.


Brilliant, thanks for that. Seems great, shame that the recommended tab is empty.


It seems to be working now.


We've been working on a way to provider similar users to you based on how you rate, creating a unique 'people like you' average movie rating. Feedback welcome :)


Exactly, Google have been hard at work on driverless car technology.


I'm surprised Kepler wasn't mentioned. And what is a supercivilzation? Are we one of those?


I thought they were talking about Type 2 and 3 civilizations. We don't even count as a Type 1.

Ah thanks for the link, not even type one! Some way to go then ;)
