Digg just announced the launch of their recommendation engine. There's a really interesting video with their lead scientist Anton Kast talking about how the technology works on the Digg blog. More coverage here at VentureBeat and TechCrunch.
Digg has been one of the real pioneers in the Discovery space with their use of explicit user data to help surface interesting content.Some of their new approaches are similar to techniques that we have worked on at Aggregate Knowledge and I'm curious to see how well they work. My guess is that they will see a decent sized bump user engagement if you look at pages per user or click through rate on their recommendations.
Anton really nails it when he talks about how some of the biggest problems are doing this in real time and at scale. It shows a great understanding of the real problems in teh space.
If any Digg folks read this I'd love to get an account to check it out and give feedback!
