Hi Matt, Good idea! In fact, del.icio.us browsing history makes a very rich (and dynamic) user profile, which can be used to access all sorts of information - not just del.icio.us. Here's a report on an investigation into this topic - but, nothing you can buy :) http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/2007/HPL-2007-72.html ___________________________________________________________ Steve Cayzer http://wwww.hpl.hp.com/personal/Steve_Cayzer HP Labs Bristol, Filton Road, Stoke Gifford, Bristol BS34 8QZ UK Hewlett-Packard Limited registered Office: Cain Road, Bracknell, Berks RG12 1HN Registered No: 690597 England

We were noticing how much del.icio.us is learning about our interests, thanks to all the interesting links we keep teaching it about, and we were wondering if there were any plans to make use of that. For example, a version of http://del.icio.us/popular <http://del.icio.us/popular> that shows us fresh links that we will certainly be interested in based on our interests. Or a version of the network view which somehow emphasizes activity that will likely be more interesting to us than the average link. It would be cool to sort the past year's worth of my friends' postings from most interesting to least interesting. Or sort a particular tag's history in a similar way. I would pay money to be able to do things like this. :) Thanks, Matt http://del.icio.us/fjarlq <http://del.icio.us/fjarlq> [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
