Google Reader feed recommendations

Googler Steve Goldberg announces that Google Reader has launched feed recommendations based on "what other feeds you subscribe to, as well as your Web History data."

My Google Reader recommendations are quite good. My top recommendations are Seattlest, Slog (from The Stranger, a Seattle free newspaper), Natural Language Processing Blog, Machine Learning etc, and Daniel Lemire's blog.

Pretty hard to complain about those. Nice work, Nitin Shantharam and Olga Stroilova.

It is worth noting that Bloglines has had recommendations for some time, but their recommendations suffer badly from a popularity bias. For example, my top Bloglines recommendations are Slashdot, Dilbert, NYT Technology, Gizmodo, and BBC World News.
