Show HN: Movie Recommendations for several people to watch together

#1

Post by paulnelligan »

We've been working on a custom engineered collaborative filtering algorithm not only to recommend movies for one person but for several to watch together, at the same time.

We're still in closed beta but would love to get feedback before launching.

Looks cool. Minor comment though, when I saw the cell phones, the first thing I thought of was button candy. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ooCR1rvj6h4/TSFPFXg1CFI/AAAAAAAAB_...

Supposed to be remote controls...

Love the idea, but my first thought was "man, I have to rate everything I've watched/read/played AGAIN???" I really wish there was better interchange/exchange of this sort of data, because it's sad that my first impression of your app is so quickly soured by that.

Yeah that's a good point. We're gonna work on that, for now we just wanted to test the group recommendations...
