A key goal of Dine.com is to be able to personally suggest restaurants
to you just as if you asked some of your closest friends - friends who
know what restaurants you like and dislike.
- Back in late 1994, Dine.com became the first website that used a
technique called 'collaborative filtering' to predict restaurants
based on the relationship between your favorites and other members
of Dine.com.
- To let Dine.com help you, just become a regular and then look for
your favorite restaurants.
- When you find one, click on the button that says something like,
"Add this restaurant to your hot list".
- Once you created a list of your favorite restaurants, there will
be a link to let you view Dine.com's recommendations based on your
particular tastes.
- How many times have you asked someone for a restaurant
suggestion?
- The first thing someone will ask is, "Well, what type of
food do you like?" to be quickly followed up with questions
regarding ambiance, price ranges, and other restaurants you
like.
- Then the person may try to match you with restaurants that
he/she has already visited.
- That's a little bit how Dine.com works...
- A key difference between Dine.com and the way a friend may help is
that Dine.com only knows what groups of restaurants people like
instead of the reasoning why.
- While this may seem like just a little bit of information, it's
actually remarkably powerful. If a member of Dine.com likes many
of the restaurants you like as well as some that you have yet
visited, then it's pretty likely that the others may be of
interest to you.
- The real power of this assumption comes in when we ask everyone
in the system to suggest restaurants for you and tally the
results.
- What this means is that by playing an active role in Dine.com (e.g.,
posting reviews and listing your favorite restaurants), you are
simultaneously improving the quality of the site for everyone!
