Ari Paparo Dot Com: Getting it Right: "We added a 'find similar' button to the Blink interface, and the results were often quite good. The problem was that we were once again asking the user to go out and do things. The vision was that the similar sites would just be there, the same way Amazon presents you with the related products. But the servers couldn�t handle it. They could barely handle it when the users actually clicked to see results, let alone on every pageview.
I suggested a compromise. Instead of the algorithm, how about just using the text of the folder name as the key. Show the top 10 sites in all folders with the same name, across all users. I was basically suggesting a rudimentary tagging system"
