Since the month ended...12 days ago I'm calling it quits on the Netflix Prize. It just wasn't in my wheelhouse. I was playing around with a few things, but tying to come up with a decent algo using command line PHP on my AMD XP 2200...it just wasn't happening. I may still play around with it if I stumble upon some brilliant idea, but for now I'm moving on to a new project. Official announcement to come.
