This science project is over - I can say with little fear of rebuttal that iGoogle's Recommender tab is severally broken. Somebody needs to turn out the lights.
After 200 reviews, and a month to think it over, any recommender that has a CPU should be able to do something.
Alas, iGoogle's Recommender tab does practically nothing. When I login this week, I was presented with the same sad list of items from last week, including my overwhelmingly negative ratings.
In disbelief, I restarted and with some relief, found that I once again had recommendations in only 1 of 6 categories. And, in that one category - "Pages", I had another set of 50 sad recommendations.
Once again, I paged though, hoping to find some merit in this service. Alas, there is none.
What I have learned is that given a random set of 50 url's I will probably like 1 or 2.
I will need a new plan for next week.
