I go to the "For You" section in order to giggle at the suggestions.
After hundreds and hundreds of purchases, for some reason the algorithm has concluded that I want to buy models of insects by a vendor I've never heard of.
I'm reminded of Netflix -- which is also worthy of a good chuckle. But I think I have an idea of why Netflix's algorithm doesn't work sometimes. It seems based on a rather questionable categorization of themes. And while I was rating a bunch of movies I'd seen, I got an example of how they categorize things. I rated "Brokeback Mountain" 5 stars, because I loved the movie, and Netflix asked me, "You liked 'Brokeback Mountain'. How often do you watch Westerns?" WESTERNS? LOLOL. Okay.
