In January of this year, Findory founder Greg Linden published a blog post indicating the slow death of personalized search tool Findory. Launched in January of 2004, the personalized search tool looked to apply an Amazon-like recommendation feature for users in order to help you find content you'd otherwise miss.
So with the intention of spending more time on his own health and family, Linden's Findory had enough gas left to let it run on autopilot through most of this year. So now that the year is coming to a close, Findory will be shut down on November 1, 2007. It's sad to see a good product go, but it's comforting to know that its creation influenced the emergence of new companies, as well as improvements for larger companies like AOL.
