- Hunch ★
-
Caterina Fake announces Hunch:
In addition to helping you climb the decision tree, Hunch asks you a bunch of questions about yourself to find out more about what you’re like and what you like. Hunch creates a kind of “taste profile” of you and people like you, which combine with topic-specific questions to deliver a hunch just for you. This is still very nascent — we’ve had fewer than 200 people using the site so far — but the more people use it, the better it will get.

Merlin’s and my SXSW session, rendered as a comic in real time by Dave Gray. I love these.
