The MySpace social networking website allows members to create personal profiles and share them with other users. One significant feature of MySpace allows members to share their tastes in music and to listen to popular music. The goal of this project is to use this data to develop and assess a prototype music recommendation system for MySpace. We have created an application that reads a user’s music preferences from their profile and recommends other artists the user may appreciate.
