From the product strategy standpoint, instead of focusing directly on the users, Minekey is currently talking with quite a few media publishing companies who have silos of content but not real way to deliver relevant recommendations based on the user tastes. Minekey’s publisher platform enables media companies to associate their select news feeds with each of the widget they want to place on their site. From the user perspective, as they browse through different pages on a particular site and also click on news links in the Minekey recommendation widget, it keeps storing their browsing tastes and history to recommend relevant articles.

However, the Minekey widget will work on Wordpress blogs that are hosted by downloading the Wordpress software (http://wordpress.org/download/). As an example, see the Minekey widget on action at Don Loeb's blog (http://donloeb.com/) which is a Wordpress blog hosted on Yahoo. Regards Hi Laurie,

Delip Andra is leading the charge at Minekey that is funded by NEA with Vinod Dham being on the Board of Directors. Delip and his team in India have been working on the content recommendation service for the past more than a year. In this long development cycle, MineKey has developed a content surfacing engine that enables publishers to target the most relevant content to their users based on the browsing history. This is a very different viewpoint from the existing mechanisms where majority of the publishers assume that the most relevant content is the one which is most recent, or has been assigned to the same category or has been similarly tagged.
