Findory
Findory was a news and blog aggregation website that utilized collaborative filtering[1] to provide users with personalized newsfeeds and news e-mails. Findory collected a history of which articles a user clicked, a form of passive filtering, to recommend articles preferred by similar users.[2] Along with news and blogs, Findory provided personalized podcasts and video, personalized web search, and a variety of access methods, including a REST API, e-mail subscription, and mobile phone access.
Findory was founded in 2004 by Amazon.com alumnus Greg Linden.[3] In January 2007, Linden announced that he would be abandoning new work on Findory, and that he planned to shut it down.[4] Although the announced November 1, 2007 termination date was briefly postponed, the service ultimately ceased on December 18, 2007.[5]
