Hunch

Mónica (from ex-4S) has sent me the link to this page: Hunch.com

Firstly, you should know that "hunch" means "presentimiento", "corazonada".

This page asks you some questions about your preferences, and based on your answers it suggests other things that you may also like.

It introduces itself like this:

Hunch is a decision-making tool, built by its users. In ten questions or fewer, Hunch gives you its best hunch of what you would like. Read the FAQ for help, post to the forums for questions or suggestions, and let us know how we can make Hunch help you. We're glad you're here.
Now go make some decisions!

Last night I was playing around with it and answering questions, and after I'd finished 20, I decided to see what British comedy shows it recommended for me.

And surprise surprise: its first recommendation was precisely my absolute favourite series (Peep Show). Incredible! So I decided to create an account so that it can keep my results and give me more recommendations.

Not all the questions are interesting, and some don't really need much research. For example the answer to "Which Tom Hanks movie should I watch?" is obviously "why on earth would anyone want to watch a Tom Hanks movie?". But there are others that will probably spark your curiosity. Eg:

Should I cheat on my spouse?
Which kitchen knife should I get?
Which foreign language should I learn? (Maybe a bit late for that one)
Which philosopher should I read?

Etc.


Well, thanks Mónica!
