The web is huge and most users only end up browsing through a small section of what is available. If you share a particular interest, how do you find the pages, blogs and news sites you require to fulfil your requirements? Your first port of call would be to enter your request within a search engine such as Google. Here you can find pages that match (or are similar) to your request. However, some of the more obscure sites and blogs may not be categorised, listed or promoted by commercial search engines. You could browse for ages without finding them.

Like a good restaurant, some web pages are found purely through recommendation. One idea would be to enter a chat discussion or forum based around a topic of choice, then ask other users for recommendations. The other option is to install something like Yoono which is a community-based web recommendation system.

It will recommend sites, pages and blogs based around the sort of web page you are visiting. These recommendations are based around the suggestions made by other users, depending on how they rank the pages that have been recommended. Yoono places a bar on the left of your Firefox browser interface with a list of recommended web sites. You can choose to ignore them or visit them within another tab.

The download here is for Mozilla Firefox and is a Firefox-based extension.
