Web 2.0 is all about a user-centric, personalised model. In other words, "the user is in control". That's why recommendation engines are so exciting - they're going to form the backbone of this user-centric ecosystem. Josh Porter has a great roundup of these engines, including:

* iTunes “Top Songs”

* Amazon “people who bought this also bought…”

* Bloglines “similar blogs”

* Del.icio.us “most popular” bookmarks

* NYTimes “most emailed articles”

Josh is a not only a great blogger - he's also a bit of a visionary. Subscribed!
