Hi Sam, You could use a custom implementation of ItemSimilarity that looks at content-specific properties to compute the similarity. In an onlineshop you would for example compare properties like price, manufacturer or color of products. While the quality of the results might not be very high with this approach, it's still better than showing nothing.
