Could this also recommend a list of members who provided similar ratings/votes for the same content as the current user?

user_recommendation.module provides a block that recommends a list of members who have voted on similar content/similar scores. Then each user page which will recommend to the user logged in a set of nodes for which the current user hasn't voted on.

Best explained with an example:

I am user joe
On the recommended user block, I see user jane and I click on jane
On jane's profile page, i see a list of nodes that jane voted really highly that I (joe) didn't rate at all.

This only works for percentage based voting systems. Please be aware of this because there is no check within that module to verify it. (small mistake by myself).

This page talks in detail about user_recommendation.module: http://groups.drupal.org/node/1231

Please let me know if that meets your specs

Scott, thanks for the fast reply! First of all, I just want to give you kudos for the amazing work you have done with the CRE and related sub-projects. I spent some time reading your posts on the groups site and am quite impressed. I think the user and content recommendation modules will be of great value to us. We're developing a community site for Baltimore and will definitely be trying these modules out to encourage participation. I will let you know how it turns out.

Also, thought you might be interested in this article I found today: http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2006/11/27/839434...

Take care and keep up the great work!
