Hi all, A net friend of mine;Joelowooten is concerned with monitoring and hence forcasting people's preferences regarding movie genre, therefore he's launching a site named " smatchy.com " for which he needs to build a core group to create the foundation. if interested you can mail him at survey@smatchy.com OR joelowooten@yahoo.com and he will send you an Excel file to rate around 350 films from 1937 to 2007 on point & click basis. Interested ? go get it.

Thanks a lot for your participation, I who might didn't explain properly. Let me use his own words : " This effort began as a class project at the university of Pennsylvania. Originally, we had a computer process that measured how similarly people answer questions. We began using this to make predictions and have now developed a process that enables us to make very accurate books and movies recommendations. We are hoping to launch this technology online to make finding books and movies ( that people will like ) much easier. We need help collecting two things. First we need to determine which movies to include on the site. Second we need a group of " experts " who have seen a large number of the titles so that we have a good understanding of preferences ".
