About This Is Like

This Is Like helps you connect ideas, people, and places through associative thinking.

On a deeper level it's a collaborative system of associations: people can add items, link them together, and share their associative knowledge with the others. This way, clusters of similar items are created, which are rated by the number of connections they have.


Our site has been called the "Last.Fm of travel" and "Wikipedia of associations", you could also call it the "pop" recommendation system. While our software is based on complex patent-pending algorithms and utilizes several advanced APIs (Calais is one of them), we do not follow the semantic web hype and instead focus on free associative thinking to invite people to share their knowledge and simply play.
