That is one cool applet!

Actually, I don't know if it's an applet or some type of script or other app (I'll find out when I try the site in linux I suppose), but music-map is really, really interesting. Instead of saying, "People who like U2 are almost certain to like R.E.M. , and some of them also have an affinity for Nine Inch Nails, it shows you.

(That particular connection would probably disturb both Bono and Trent Reznor, by the way.)

I wonder where they get their data from. Hmmm.

Wow. It's some kind of AI engine working on the basis of user input. gnod it's called, for "global network of dreams". Huh, cool, but I wonder what should be done with the typos in the author names.
