On: Ask YC: Feedback on idea

[noodle]

well, i wasn't necessarily implying to have one site that dilutes the idea, but the solution for fashion could be cloned into another app for music, and so on.

the idea itself is reusable. suggestion engines could always use improvements.

Yea the real idea is to help people find hidden gems and from there find similar gems. The music scene is already pretty crazy though with last.fm and pandora and the millions of other sites trying to help people discover new music

true enough about music overload. and also book overload.

if i could come up with a truly good idea offhand, though, i might be working on it instead of sharing ;)

i'm sure there are other relevant applications for this concept beyond the big ones.
