update: so far aardvark has been frustrating. the main problem i've found has been lazy answers. for example, when i asked, "anyone have word of mouth recommendations for holiday accommodation in Byron Bay NSW?" i received back two answers that quoted a website URL for hotel reviews. the same URL. so i understand that i can add detail to my question like, "please note, i'm asking for a personal recommendation from someone who has actually stayed somewhere that they enjoyed," and, "please note, i know how to use teh google and have already searched review sites." but that gets kinda tiring.
anyhow, now i'll try out hunch for a few days and see if it's any better. so far i've mostly only played with hunch's THAY (teach hunch about you) profiler. but one question i asked was "what car should i buy" and out of the 4 results, 2 were cars that i had definitely considered, 1 was a car that i hadn't considered but now i will, and 1 was a car i don't like. so that's pretty good.

but hunch is all about profiling you and then predicting your tastes. i wonder how it will cope with one of The Human Problems: we change our minds, our preferences progress, we are fickle critters.

Hey there cocolaco! thanks for the twitter thanks. :-D
We've given some thought to the Human Problems noted above. It's a tough one. We have considered a "what are you in the mood for" kind of lead in for certain topics. Like for movies, sometimes you're in the mood for the latest Denzel Washington vehicle, and sometimes you want a costume drama.
Anyhoo, cheers! and welcome to Hunch!
