idle lj experimentation

[egypturnash]

LJ has this tool that lets you find users who list 'similar' interests to you.

I was curious as to who was on he top. and then I had a thought. What if I see who's most similar to that person, then the person most similar to them... will I find anyone interesting?

At the moment, the person with the 'most similar interests' to me is fgd135, who seems to be a movie geek, and hasn't updated since February '03. The only interests we share are four dead cartoonists.

Most similar to him is filmscore, a community for talking about film music. I have no listed interests in common.

From there, we find sebab, who makes music and is a diabetic.

From her, I get to saranna, who has never updated, has never made any comments, and has no friends listed. And who is a dead end, as her most similar interests is sebab.

Just one of those little things you do when goofing off at work...

This is just for paid users?

Nope. Paid and unpaid. I fixed the link to it that I mistyped, by the way.
