Partially inspired by recent discussions on HN and other places. I've made a single-focus site to introduce your friends/colleagues/neighbours/family to RSS and web feeds. https://www.youneedfeeds.com/ The site is meant to give the elevator pitch for feeds, show a newbie what feeds are and how to use them, set them up with a reader, and give them some nice starter content if they want it. So much tastemaking and newsmaking power is concentrated in the hands of Facebook/Reddit/Twitter, but I'm convinced it's because much of the general populace doesn't…

I created this chrome extension for myself where I track my own behavior locally and recommend myself content from platforms I want content from (youtube/twitter/quora/etc) in a feed. I made it public just in case anyone else was interested. I would rather have control over my own algorithm and own the data. Also, it gives me flexibility. Turns out I do like these feeds just not when I don't own it haha. Let me know what you think of my implementation?

This is something fun I’ve been hacking on recently: ridiculously simple group chat. Go to http://faces.io and then get your friends to do the same. That’s it! :-D Currently works best in Chrome. It’s definitely beta status at best. Audio can get weird—be ready to mute. ;-) Let me know what you think!

http://www.friendsonnetflix.com About a year ago Netflix removed their friends feature, where you could see your friends' ratings. This was a great way to discover new movies, but according to them only 2% of their userbase cared. So a few months ago I built this web app to recreate that and more. My goal was for sign-up to be as simple as possible. I don't even ask for your email (maybe I should though?). When you connect your Netflix account it pulls in your ratings/reviews. When you connect your Twitter and/or Facebook, it'll find your friend's profiles and follow them. This was my first…

We've been working on a custom engineered collaborative filtering algorithm not only to recommend movies for one person but for several to watch together, at the same time. We're still in closed beta but would love to get feedback before launching.

Ankit Ranka and I built this for ourselves and it was kind of useful, so we decided to package it up and see if others find it useful too. Ankit is an avid reader, but never new what book to read on the weekend. I'm always trying to find a new movie on Friday night to unwind. I usually end up spending 30-45 minutes looking for a movie, and by the time I find one I don't feel like watching a movie anymore! We built ScoutFeed to monitor our Twitter feeds and help us find books and movies that people we follow tweet about. It turns out people recommend apps and songs on twitter too, so we…
