making online dating reasonable @ flowmingle.com. the balance of structure and expression is a challenge, but a fun one.
is anyone aware of any non-dating sites that do a good job of helping you meet other like-minded people?
I've been working on it nights and weekends. Great respite from some of the less than pleasant activities of coding at my day job.
At the moment we are considering Celeste as the basis for this platform. http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/celeste/
I've got the partner (alexkravets), now we're looking for funding to mitigate the risk of having no day job.
We don't have a write-up online at the moment, but we firmly believe in the "ideas are cheap; execution is everything" philosophy, so we'll answer any questions.
http://theperceptron.com - astute music recommendations And a site where you create your audio autobiography by uploading mp3s. Hello, RIAA.
Not bad, got some good recommendations. The UI needs a lot of work but I'm sure you're working on that ;) What do you use to fetch your library of artists/etc? Or is it selt built?
I find links between artists and recommend based upon that. These links include: being recommended by a human, being on the same record label, being mutual admirers, playing gigs together, being posted to the same mp3 blog, being on the same mixtapes and so on.
I wrote a post on my blog that gives a comprehensive account of how the recommendation system works: http://www.maryrosecook.com/post/show/130
And, yes, I know the UI is horrible.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
I think I like that idea. Now just add in a kick-ass reputation fixer module and you're set :)
LOL, the spec doesn't cover that I'm afraid, though it would be a killer feature. I can think of various politicians that might want it...
To cut down on my total workload (and so my mother wouldn't complain when I worked on these projects), I'm using both for two different projects for the IB diploma program. As a result, I have to do the Mao-playing system in Java though.
Just started a video blog about stock options. Pretty fun so far. www.investingwithoptions.com
I watched a few of your videos, quite enjoyed them despite my small knowledge of markets. Keep at it!
