After a lot of hardwork and research, Grooveshark, the company I work for has released the next iteration of Grooveshark Lite, our web-based music discovery service. The newest release of the service supports an Autoplay feature, which generates recommendations based upon your listening habits. At the simplest level, you can just drop a few songs in your queue, click Autoplay, and the system will provide a continuous stream of songs based on feedback you provide.
The system uses a combination of statistically generated relational data and expert driven recommendations to provide what we hope is a very enjoyable play experience. Of course, this is a beta, so forgive me if it's not always 100% to your liking. Myself and a few other employees have had a large role in the design of this system, and I have to say that it's been one of the more interesting and challenging projects I've worked on.
