Sometimes it's important to remember that computers are *not* incapable of making mistakes. Take a look at the following picture taken from my Amazon recommendations page:

See what's wrong? This was what Amazon "recommended" to me today due to the fact that I had added "The Charles Bukowski Tapes" to my Amazon wish list. I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with the writings or life of Bukowski, but let me assure you that Gerald McBoing Boing and Charles Bukowski having nothng in common. In fact, I'm just going to say that Buk fans are going to be highly disappointed with the works of Mr. McBoing Boing, and any parent reading Bukowski poems to their kids are probably unfit, to say the least.
I actually do find a lot of good recommendations through Amazon, but this is a nice reminder that it can just never take the place of human interaction. I get far more recommendations for good media from my friends (both virtual and real-life) than I could from any computer-generated list, and it's hard to see how a screw-up like this could take place anyplace else other than the bowels of impersonal computer code. I wonder how many patrons still go up to the librarian and ask them to recommend a good book?
